Got there in the end! Location D: Tooting Bec - southbound platform [Chris M] (click for a larger version) And for our younger readers 'Bec' is named after a monestry in Normandy. The land around Tooting was beqeathed to the Archbishop of Canterbury after the Norman Conquest

They're all two word answers, and C looks Holden-like, so I'll take a stab at Bounds Green.

They are all two-word answers but that's coincidental. C isn't Bounds Green though, does this help? (click for a larger version)

The land around Tooting was beqeathed to the Archbishop of Canterbury after the Norman Conquest As an aside, more years ago than I care to admit I was one of the first pupils at St Nicholas, Northwood Hills (now Haydon School). Two of the houses were named 'Abbot's' and 'Bec' so I guess there was some connection.

Still looking for the link between Imperial Wharf, Chancery Lane, Finchley Road and Tooting Bec and the Zone 1 station that would be 5th in the set.
