Victorian Tiling at Embankment
"Colin Rosenstiel" wrote in message .co.uk... In article , (lonelytraveller) wrote: At embankment station, there's a room behind/under the down escalator leading to the northbound northern line platform .There's victorian tiling on the right hand wall as you look in from the foot of the escalator; why? Given that the Northern Line opened in 1907, I doubt it's actually Victorian. Edwardian I might believe. Built using a stockpile of Victorian tiles? Perhaps they bought a job lot cheap after Victoria's death... But seriously, how quickly do architectural styles/materials change? Paul S |
