West Hampstead

The original 1888 entrance to the London Overground West Hampstead station, on 3rd February 2020. A new entrance immediately to the left in conjunction with the rebuilding of the station at a cost of £12.5 million was completed in October 2019 but on the day of this photograph the original was still staffed and selling tickets, even though it is due for demolition. However, there is no longer any access from here to the platforms, both stairwells having been demolished, so anyone buying their tickets here has to come out and use the new entrance anyway. So they might just as well have used it in the first place!
