Finchley Central tube station is a station in Finchley_Central on the Northern Line, It has three platforms, one of which goes to Mill Hill East tube station, another goes up towards High Barnet tube station, and one goes southbound towards Morden tube station. The station was originally part of the Great Northern Railway before it became part of the London Underground, and was then known as Finchley Church End.
An unusual aspect of its layout, with two entrances, yet one ticket hall means that it is one of those few stations on the London Underground that does not have fully gated access, yet it does have a line of ticket barriers which are never set to be closed. If you enter via the Station Road entrance, there's just a pair of Oyster_card validators.
There is currently no disabled access to the platforms, which must be reached by flights of stairs. However, the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, has announced that Finchley Central will be one of a number of stations on the Northern Line which will be upgraded to allow disabled access.
