2: Pig-eating child in wintery showers Location: Tottenham Hale Explanation: Pig-eating child = ham 'n tot = Tottenham, wintery showers = hail = Hale [this bonus was partially written by MoreToJack] 5 isn't Meridian water, but you do get an alternative clue to the same station: Mr Livingstone dined

I am now kicking myself for not figuring out Tottenham Hale. Also, based on the second clue I think 5 is Kennett.
