Platform 4

Charing Cross is a station of many names and faces. It has evolved from several Underground stations that have been combined and modified over time into the current form. The story of its development is one of constant change and innovation.

Situated at the point where the Strand and Trafalgar Square meet, the station provides access to an area of London familiar to Londoners and tourists, but few would guess what lies beneath the streets beyond the operational station tunnels.

These photographs, taken in October 2017, showcase the tunnels as they stand today.

Inspiration for the framing of the shots came from the 1975 New Topographics exhibition.
