Edmonton Green
Exterior of the east side of Edmonton Green station, London Overground since 2015, on 12th August 2019. This station opened as Edmonton on 27th July 1872 when the line was extended from Stoke Newington to a connection with the Angel Road to Enfield Town line just north-west of the station and was renamed Lower Edmonton (High Level) on 1st July 1883. The original Edmonton station of 1849 on the line from Angel Road, which was to the left where the road roundabout now is, became Lower Edmonton (Low Level) at the same time; after this closed to passengers in 1939, the high level suffix was dropped from the surviving station. In 1992, the name Edmonton Green was chosen to define the area more correctly and this became the name of the station although my research has been unable to discover the exact date the station was renamed.
