Perivale Halt opened on 2 May 1904 on the Great Western Railway’s New North Main Line, now the Acton–Northolt line, and closed when the current Underground station opened on 30 June 1947, as the Central line was extended to West Ruislip. The building had been designed back in 1938 by Brian Lewis, later the GWR’s chief architect, but the Second World War delayed its completion, and the finished building was modified by the architect Frederick Francis Charles Curtis.

A planned tower and an extended wing were never built, so the station is smaller than intended. Even so, in July 2011 it was one of 16 London Underground stations given Grade II listed status. It lies between Greenford and Hanger Lane on the West Ruislip branch.
