Thanks, Robert, unfortunately no positive identification made despite

my
message being on three newsgroups. I can't believe that nobody knows !!

Could it be the Fleet River? I cannot find a link for its course at that
point but it is certainly very close and travels N-S.


That's a very good suggestion. "London Under London" records that the
Fleet flows beneath Pancras Way and the sketch map shows it passing to
the west of King's Cross station. Furthermore,

http://www.ctrl.co.uk/flyers/contract.asp?ID=5051

mentions recent CTRL work being carried out in connection with the Fleet
Sewer ... so I think you may well have identified the photo!

Pancras Road is on the east of the St Pancras trainshed whereas the place I
photographed is on the west, more than 100 yards away so I don't think
that's it. Thanks anyway.
