Stonebridge Park

Stonebridge Park is a local commuter station on the Bakerloo line and London Overground, serving the Stonebridge area of Brent between Harlesden and Wembley Central. The neighbourhood went through significant regeneration in the 2000s when the old Stonebridge estate was demolished and replaced with new mixed-tenure housing. The result is a cleaner, quieter residential area, though one without much in the way of local facilities beyond what the nearby North Circular Road retail parks provide.

The station is primarily useful as a commuter point and as one of several stations giving access to the wider Wembley area, including the stadium and SSE Arena to the north-east. IKEA Wembley, one of the larger London stores, is within easy reach by bus or on foot.
