Nearest Tube to Greenwich

Is there anywhere else on the London transport (with a small "t") system
where the Prime Meridian is marked?
There is a plaque in the ground, showing the line of the Meridian, next to
the northbound route 97 bus stop opposite Chingford Police Station. This is
a few hundred metres from the obelisk on top of Pole Hill, which sits on the
Meridian and was once used to line up the transept instrument at the
Greenwich observatory.
I'm told that there is another such plaque at Higham's Park broadway (close
to the station), but have never gone looking for it.
