Gants Hill underground station

Gants Hill tube station is at the eastern end of the Central Line; located beneath a very busy roundabout it is the easternmost station to be completely underground on the London Underground network. During the Second World War the station was used as an air raid shelter and the tunnels as a munitions factory for the nearby Plessey electronics firm. The interesting part of the station though is the lower concourse which is rather beautiful and brings to mind the stations on the Moscow underground system, probably because the LU architect Charles Holden advised on the construction of the Moscow Metro.
