Holborn Viaduct Low level was a railway station in the City of London opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway on 1 August 1874, as part of the LC&D's City Line route towards the Joint Metropolitan Railway's line in central London. It was situated Between Holborn Viaduct and Snow Hill road, just north of Holborn Viaduct Station, providing interchange for high and low level services.
The station would have been at the foot of the Snow Hill tunnel, Just before entring it. The route would then have advanced through the tunnel and joined onto the route leading towards Aldersgate Street on one end, and Farringdon Street on the other.
The station was closed in 1916 owing to low passenger usage, although the tunnel of the same name had closed much later in the 1960's. Today, some of the platforms remain, however are only visible through a passing train.
