That would be East India.


How close is that? I know where I work is somewhere like 0'0"007 E, and
that is about 3/4 mile from East India station.


It's actually 0:00:29, apparently.

Pretty close (my mapping software has it within 100yds). The Meridian
is alleged to pass through Telehouse, which is close to the station (if a
little to the East).


I don't think I know Telehouse. But I reckon I can tell exactly where I
cross the Meridian when I go that way.... just about where my boss
dropped me off this evening, as he gave me a lift to the station.

Anybody know where the Jubilee line crosses the Meridian on its way to
Canning Town - it couldn't be right under the Thames, could it?
