Northwood Hills is a London Underground station in Northwood, north-west London. It is on the Metropolitan line between Northwood and Pinner stations, and is located in London fare zone 6.

History

The station opened on 13 November 1933. There was a competition for the name and Northwood Hills, suggested by a woman from North Harrow was the winning entry. The area is lower than Northwood, despite the name. ^[6]
