Oddly enough have a look for Barbican Underground station on google
maps at the moment - it seems to have migrated 150 yds north...

Not quite. Barbican Station is shown in pretty much the right place, in
between Virgin Active Barbican and Tesco Express. There's a blob marked
"Barbican" 150m north that's apparently for the "Barbican Centre."

Meanwhile, on iPhone Maps, Barbican Station is shown halfway down the
platform, 50m west of its actual entrance, with no street access at all.
Barbican Centre is shown 200m east of the station.

And I now notice Google Maps has the real Barbican Centre as well. It
appears that the fake Barbican Centre off Fann St is so annotated
because someone has added a photo to Panoramio with the wrong caption.

What's a bit strange, though is that a search for "Barbican Station"
brings up the Barbican Centre location on a layer that doesn't have the
Station marked at all, either with a small square or with a Roundel.

To get the small-square showing the Underground station you have to
click the words "Underground Station" in the results that show the
Barbican Centre. (At which point the layer displayed doesn't have any
Roundels on it [eg at Moorgate]).

Poking around a bit more, if you search Google Maps for "Barbican London
Underground Station, it pinpoints the correct location (of the
entrance). But it puts the Roundel 150m north where the fake Barbican
Centre is!
