I think that's the ground of Maidenhead United* i.e. between Maidenhead and Taplow.
(*A club who have just had a very lucky escape thanks to the curtailing of the season.)

It looks like it's in the Denmark Hill area. Perhaps between there and Peckham Rye?

All have four tracks at that location except D.

Number of tracks has nothing to do with the answer.

This is related to the names but not to botany.

All station pairs have the same second letter, odd one out is C because station names are only single words.

That's true but a coincidence. C is not the odd one out.

You're still overthinking this one

Post by blackhorsesteve on Sept 25, 2020 10:44:18 GMT
I'll try and underthink this then! Each shows an area between two stations with the same number of words. D is the odd one out as it has an '&' in it.

Great attempt, though it looks more like a decreasing trend in number of words from A to C (5-4-3) and then D has 6.
