Are you sure Hatton Cross is cut-and-cover? It's quite deep, and
there would be no obvious reason to cover it.


I'm not sure it is very deep, is it? I recall just stairs down to the
platforms - not even an escalator.


Yes, there are 33 steps down to the platforms, which have flat ceilings and
are evidently cut-and-cover. The "obvious reason to cover it" is that the
exit from the bus station and the airport perimeter road are on top of it.
