Technically, we have no chance of meeting a deadline with a date such as this. Do we all get a bye into the next round?

...for once, Going Underground does not think that it is a station.

I thought it was a station which I now realise doesn't have tunnels either side of the road - the pavements at the station I was thinking of are right next to the road, so back to the drawing board for me.

My first thoughts were Stamford Brook actually, so I echo scrsxi's and Going Underground's thinking. However, there were little things in the picture that didn't add up, like the claustrophobic tunnel and the one-way road. To my knowledge, there is no station on the District line that looks like that, but it looked so similar to the bit between Ravenscourt Park and Turnham Green that I thought it must be somewhere nearby. Then the answer hit me!
