The station was opened on 10 December 1932 by the Metropolitan Railway (MR) on the MR's extension from Wembley Park to Stanmore.[7] The station was originally named Canons Park (Edgware) although the suffix was dropped the following year.[8] On 20 November 1939,[7] services on the Stanmore branch were transferred to the Bakerloo line and, on 1 May 1979, they were transferred again to the Jubilee line.[7]
