I've had that about London Bridge.


Hm, but if they asked for the station with that name and not the
bridge itself?


Also, I've often heard the area around the station referred to as
London Bridge. As in, "London Bridge isn't a very nice area" or
"Guy's Hospital is in London Bridge".

So it's a perfectly valid question, and the answer is the south
side.


At London Bridge, maybe. But definitely not of Westminster Bridge!
