História

Vista da plataforma leste

A Metropolitan Railway (Harrow and Uxbridge Railway) construiu a linha entre Harrow-on-the-Hill e Uxbridge e iniciou os serviços em 4 de julho de 1904 com, inicialmente, Ruislip sendo a única parada intermediária. No início, os serviços eram operados por trens a vapor, mas a eletrificação das vias foi concluída nos meses seguintes e os trens elétricos começaram a operar em 1 de janeiro de 1905.

O desenvolvimento progressivo na área norte de Middlesex nas duas décadas seguintes levou à abertura gradual de estações adicionais ao longo do ramal de Uxbridge para incentivar o crescimento de novas áreas residenciais. Eastcote foi inaugurada em 26 de maio de 1906 como Eastcote Halt.[1]

Em 1º de março de 1910, uma extensão da linha District de South Harrow para se conectar com a Metropolitan Railway em Rayners Lane foi aberta permitindo que os trens da linha District servissem as estações entre Rayners Lane e Uxbridge a partir dessa data. Em 23 de outubro de 1933, os serviços da linha District foram substituídos pelos trens da linha Piccadilly. A estação foi reconstruída entre 1937 e 1939[2] com um projeto de Charles Holden, que apresenta o grande saguão de tijolos e vidro em forma de cubo, coberto com um telhado plano de concreto armado e formas geométricas típicas das novas estações construídas neste período. Os edifícios e plataformas da estação são classificados como Grau II.

A estação está rodeada pelo subúrbio de Eastcote; o centro original, agora conhecido como Old Eastcote, fica a alguma distância. O Cavendish Pavilion nas proximidades era um destino popular para passeios na primeira parte do século XX.
