Tooting Broadway
Exterior of Tooting Broadway station, LUL Northern Line, on 18th June 2013. This opened on 13th September 1926 with the extension of the City & South London Railway from Clapham Common to Morden which was thenceforth known as the Morden-Edgware Line, until 1937 when the LPTB renamed it the Northern Line, even though this section is in south London. All the stations on the Morden extension were designed by Dr. Charles Holden (1875-1960), the Underground's Chief Architect between the two World Wars, noted principally for his stations on the Cockfosters extension of the Piccadilly Line, especially Arnos Grove, and rebuilt stations in west London such as Sudbury Town on the former District Railway's Ealing & South Harrow Line, now part of the Piccadilly Line.
