Lancaster Gate Station

Inscription

Underground heritage feature
Lancaster Gate platforms
Architect: Harry Bell Measures, 1900
These platforms were the last substantial examples of the Central London Railway design dating from the opening of this section of the line in 1900. In keeping with this original design. London Underground has used plain white tiles during the modernisation of this station in 2006.
The original tiles can still be seen at high level on both platforms above the track.

Lancaster Gate is a London Underground station on the Central line.
The plaque is at the entrance at platform level.
