I don't know where the station itself would have been; the document
says the land is in railway ownership, but from the relation to the
roads, it simplies it would have been on the site now occupied by the
BBC.
From memory, it was intended to occupy the site of the White City
Sidings - now part of the White City development. So it would have been
on the east side of Wood Lane rather than on the BBC's side. In fact, I
think it was probably quite a long way further over - adjacent to the
West London line, just north of Shepherd's Bush (Central line), thus
giving handy access to North Pole depot.
I recall that White City was still in the running (along with Stratford
and St Pancras) as late as 1989 when it was already known that an
alternative to Waterloo would be needed.
