Above the Underground update

As my regular readers will know, a few years ago I set myself the challenge of visiting every one of the 270 underground stations in London to photograph and research places of interest in the vicinity of the stations. I have been doing this now for almost five years and have only just completed four out of the eleven lines and visited 104 stations.  I keep saying I need to speed things up and this year have set a target of two per month.  I have just completed the Circle Line which was overflowing with places of interest.

Read about Hammersmith, the last station on the Circle Line here:here

  1. It was an amazing undertaking. But don't give up yet. I'm seeing parts of London I'll never get to see.

  5. It's definitely a huge undertaking but I don't think it matters how long it takes or if you even complete it. You enjoying doing it is what matters.

  6. That is quite a goal! I admire you for doing it. On one of my last visits to London I had a goal of going all the way to the end of one of the lines and I ended up choosing Amersham on the Metropolitan line. I spent a wonderful afternoon wandering the quiet streets of Amersham before returning to London. I even did a bit of shopping in a gift shop on the High Street. I have great memories of that adventure.
