Northumberland Park station opened on 15th September 1840 as a Halt on the Northern & Eastern Railway. It is in Travelcard Zone 3. The station was originally named Marsh Lane after the country lane to Tottenham Marshes on which it is situated. In June 1852, it was re-named Park station, eventually being re-named to its current title, Northumberland Park on 1 July 1923, this is also the name of the surrounding district, in Tottenham, North London.
The station is located at grid reference TQ348910.
The operating depot of London Underground's Victoria Line was constructed alongside the station during the late 1960s. In the early 2000's, a plan was promoted by the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone to convert the depot runs of Victoria Line trains from Seven Sisters to Northumberland Park depot to public services, thereby providing a closer link to the Underground for nearby Tottenham Hotspur F.C. football ground, but nothing has come of it.
