The old Park Royal & Twyford Abbey station

Piccadilly

Where the name comes from

Park Royal comes from the showgrounds opened in 1903 by the Royal Agricultural Society, which the station was built to serve. The second part of the name was taken from the nearby Twyford Abbey.

Worth knowing: The showgrounds it was built for closed after only three years.
