A former station, opened in 1868, on the Aylesbury and Buckingham Railway (which later became part of the Metropolitan Railway. The Metropolitan Line, per se, was but one line on the London Underground system, (as from 1936).. Granborough Road was a small, double-tracked overground station with two platforms; albeit one set between peaceful Buckinghamshire fields and rarely used by passengers, rarely visited by trains, and so unknown to most Londoners. It was a truly rural outpost between Aylesbury and Verney Junction, 50 mile from Baker Street and on a line which closed in 1936..
