History

The station was opened as "Theydon" by the Great Eastern Railway on April 24, 1865. It was renamed "Theydon Bois" on December 1, 1865. Central Line trains first served the station on September 25, 1949. 'Milk trains' to Liverpool Street and Broad Street were a regular feature in the timetable until the underpass from Leyton to Stratford was built.

The station today

As of 5 February 2006, the station is one of the first on the network to operate without a staffed ticket office, though a member of Underground staff can be sometimes present at the station.
