On the other hand, I discovered recently that Warren
Street tube station can issue a ticket to Stansted Airport.

But not a return ticket where the return journey isn't being made on
the same day, and you won't get a Railcard discount.

Since the journey is in the South East and less than 50 miles no ticket
office sells 'not same day' return tickets and hasn't for twenty years.
My local NR ticket office was happy to sell me two (out/back) singles,
dated for different days.

Since there is a Standard Open Return listed in the fares manual, the
ticket office at Liverpool Street will quite happily sell you a 'not
same day' return to Stansted (or the office at Stansted one to Warren
Street).
