Croxley Station is a London Underground station on the Watford branch of the Metropolitan Line.

Croxley station opened on 2 November 1925 as ’Croxley Green’ with lines connecting both Rickmansworth and Moor Park. There had been shuttles running to and from Rickmansworth stations but was withdrawn in 1960 and reinstated in 1987.

It was renamed ’Croxley’ from ’Croxley Green’ in 1949 so as differentiate itself from the other station called Croxley Green.

Croxley was part of the ’Croxley Rail Link’ scheme which would have resulted in the Watford branch services on the London Underground’s Metropolitan line being diverted from the current terminus at Watford tube station onto the alignment of the disused Watford and Rickmansworth Railway between Croxley Green and Watford High Street before continuing to Watford Junction. The idea was discontinued in 2017 due to lack of funding.

Polygon Buildings
Following the demolition of the Polygon, and prior to the construction of Oakshott Court in 1974, 4 tenement type blocks of flats were built on the site at Clarendon Sq/Phoenix Rd called Polygon Buildings. These were primarily for people working for the Midland Railway and subsequently British Rail. My family lived for 5 years in Block C in the 1950s. It seems that very few photos exist of these buildings.

Road construction and houses completed
New Charleville Circus road layout shown on Stanford’s Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs 1879 with access via West Hill only.

Plans showing street numbering were recorded in 1888 so we can concluded the houses in Charleville Circus were built by this date.

War damage reinstatement plans of No’s 11 & 13 Aldine Street
Whilst clearing my elderly Mothers house of general detritus, I’ve come across original plans (one on acetate) of No’s 11 & 13 Aldine Street. Might they be of interest or should I just dispose of them? There are 4 copies seemingly from the one single acetate example. Seems a shame to just junk them as the level of detail is exquisite. No worries if of no interest, but thought I’d put it out there.
