London Underground should be commended for
using both spellings at this station since, as this
thread has proved, there is not a generally accepted
'correct' usage - either spelling seems to be acceptable.


No, they should not be commended, because it is a mistake. The station does
not have two different names, and would not even if the eponymous park did.


It's an interesting English eccentricity and is as it should be....
