Hampstead was an authorised but unbuilt railway station in Hampstead, north London planned by the Metropolitan and St John's Wood Railway (M&StJWR).

The line was to be partly funded and operated by the MR.[1] Before construction had begun, an extension was authorised across mostly open countryside to the village of Hampstead.

[4] The route between Swiss Cottage and Hampstead included an incline of 1 in 27 (3.7%) for which five special engines were constructed by the MR to deal with the steep grade.

[5][a] The M&StJWR struggled financially and the plans for the line to Finchley Road were reduced in scope so that it opened in 1868 as a single-track line only as far as Swiss Cottage and the continuation to Finchley Road and Hampstead was postponed.

[3] This is still visible today when travelling on a southbound Metropolitan line service.
