The main station building of Boston Manor station in 2008

Boston Manor is a London Underground station in the London Borough of Hounslow. The station is situated on the Heathrow branch of the Piccadilly line, between Osterley and Northfields stations, in Travelcard Zone 4. The station is on a street-level bridge over the line on Boston Manor Road, serving the suburban Boston Manor neighbourhood. Opened in 1883 by the District Railway, it was reconstructed in 1932 to a Grade II-listed building. Designed by architect Charles Holden, the Art Deco styled structure features a tall tower which acts as a landmark of the area. The station was once served by both the Piccadilly and District lines, with the latter having its last service withdrawn in 1964.
