TfL Northern line: Every stop on London’s busiest Tube line and the areas it serves
The Northern line is one of London’s most important Tube routes, connecting 52 stations across the capital. Here’s the full list of every stop, plus a look at the line’s history and the areas it serves.
The Northern line is one of London’s most complex, wide-reaching and heavily used Tube lines, stretching across 52 stations from the suburbs of Barnet and Edgware in the north to Morden in the south.
Serving major transport hubs, residential neighbourhoods, nightlife hotspots and some of the busiest commuter corridors in the country, it remains a vital part of everyday life for millions of Londoners.
The route we know today is the product of more than a century of expansion. Its origins lie in two of the capital’s earliest deep-level electric railways: the City & South London Railway, which opened in 1890 as the world’s first deep-level Tube line, and the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway, launched in 1907.
These two lines were gradually linked, extended and rebranded, eventually forming the Northern line in 1937. Later additions, including the High Barnet branch, the Edgware extension and the Mill Hill East spur, created the famously complicated network passengers navigate today.
As well as connecting key city districts such as Camden, Islington, Westminster and Southwark, the line links major destinations including King’s Cross, London Bridge, Bank, Tottenham Court Road, and Waterloo.
It's also the only Tube line with two central spines, the Bank branch and the Charing Cross branch, giving passengers multiple routes through Zone 1.
