During the 1920s, the LNER made many improvements to passenger facilities at King’s Cross, building new lavatories, bathrooms and dressing rooms under the main departure platform, and opening a Georgian tearoom and a new refreshment room. New platform barriers with illuminated blinds showing departure times were erected in the main station in the 1930s. In 1972, a very functional and supposedly ‘temporary’ single-storey extension designed by British Rail was built on to the front of the station to accommodate the main passenger concourse and ticket office, obscuring Cubitt’s Grade 1-listed façade.
