I should make clear that it's not a *huge* drop - about three metres I
guess. It's also at the top of the current embankment - so I wondered
if the railway had been shifted slightly eastwards too to allow it to
drop downwards. Of course, it could just be something entirely
uninteresting! It just looks a little platform-like.

There are some photos that might help at:

Wow. It's hard to imagine that area *without* the Shepherd's Bush
Roundabout, as those pics and map show. It having been there the whole
of the time I've lived in London (20 years) and being so big and
important, you kind of imagine it's always been there!
