3. Down Street? From Underground-History Co.UK Access to the shelter could be made in three different ways:
.....
If all else failed, a walk down the tubes to Hyde Park Corner or to Green Park. Practically, only the first method was used regularly due to the need for secrecy for the site.
The station's location was also kept secret in that its official address placed it in an entirely different location in London, as did the telephone exchange that provided its essential communications. |

Is 3 (not 2) Crystal palace? TV transmitters, and the original location of Paxton's Prefabs was Hyde park.
2. How far south can we go? Starcross? Or failing that, Forest Hill (the original terminus of the L&C's scheme)
