Default The best non-interchange interchanges

London Bridge NR to Monument/Bank - walk over the river on London
Bridge.
The District and Circle at Monument are particularly close. Good route
for those heading East on the District and vice versa.

Cannon Street (NR and LU) is nearer to Bank than Monument is. Much
easier from South East to go along the Central Line than going North
from Charing Cross and changing again. Probably as near as Charing
Cross (NR) to Charing Cross Bakerloo.


Good one, I hadn't thought of the possibilities from Cannon Street.
Basically any wily traveller arriving from points south or southeast
into London Bridge, Cannon Street or Charing Cross and heading onwards
on the Underground would be wise to consider their options before
heading down the first hole with a roundel above it!

Obviously arrivals at Charing Cross should head to Embankment for the
District and Circle (as indicated on maps already), and could consider
a walk up to Leicester Square if they wanted the Piccadilly to points
north.


Great Portland Street to Regent Street, similarly close.


Great Portland Street to Regents Park is I'm sure what you meant!

Given Baker Street is one stop west from both stations and provides a
proper interchange this would only possibly be useful to those wishing
to avoid the crush there. And those wishing to perambulate in Regents
Park, which is a treat however often you go there.
