Palmers Green railway station, in Aldermans Hill, is a train station in the London Borough of Enfield in north London, located within Travelcard Zone 4. It is 6 miles 50 chains (6.63 miles, 10.66 km) on the line from London King's Cross.[2] The station and all trains serving it are operated by Great Northern.

The station was originally named Palmer's Green & Southgate. It consists of two through platforms numbered 1 and 2 with a pair of tracks in between.

There is a regular Sunday community market in the station car park.[3] Platform 1 has a sheltered waiting room.

The station currently has no lifts, with access to platforms via staircases from the ticket hall, as well as a smaller set of steps onto platform 2 leading from the car park. There are plans to provide step-free access by lifts to the platforms installed by mid-2024.[4]
