Why is it called Stanmore?

Jubilee

Where the name comes from

Named after Stanmore. Domesday Book (1086) records it as Stanmere, from Old English stan, "stony", and mere, "a pool". The name is first documented in a charter of 793.

Worth knowing: A rival station, Stanmore Village, was designed to look like a small English church, with a spire and gargoyles.
