'Aldwych tramway station' (not to be confused with
Aldwych tube station) was a
tram stop underneath Kingsway (a road in central
London), part of the
Kingsway tramway subway.
Services from Angel
Islington to
Aldwych commenced on
24 February 1906, and through services on
10 April 1908 from

Tower Bridge and
Kennington Gate.
The station closed on

The
Strand Underpass, opened in
