Route of Palace Gates Line highlighted on a 1900 map
In 1884, as work began on the large Noel Park housing estate nearby, the station name was changed to Green Lanes & Noel Park; it was given its final name in 1902.
Competing as it did with other nearby railway lines and the London Underground's Piccadilly line, the Palace Gates line became unprofitable; the line and the station were closed for passenger services on 7 January 1963,[1] and for freight on 7 December 1964.[2] Following closure, the embankment that housed the station and the bridge over The Broadway was removed. Nothing is left of the station.
