Default Pimlico Station Question

Can someone here tell me how the different exits from Pimlico
underground station are labelled? I need to specify a meeting point
more exactly than "Pimlico tube". I've a feeling that one of them is
"Bessborough Street" or similar but advice form more regular users would
be appreciated!

Default Pimlico Station Question

Bessborough St (north side) would be the main entry - you could say
'corner of Bessborough and Rampayne' to be safe (after a glance at A
to Z). Really, it's a tiny station, won't be a problem.

All I've noticed is that the signage to Tate Britain points you in totally
the wrong direction!

Although Pimlico is tiny, when you come out of the barriers there are
at least two alternative street exits and I want to know which one to
tell people to take


Can't you pick up half the crowd at one entrance and then pick up the other
half at the other?

Which is quite possibly a great thing
