Isn't that long disused L-shaped tunnel at embankment, leading north
from the eastbound district line then west, meant to be very haunted?
It's called something like 'paget's walk'


'Pages Walk'


Why? Is is where all the missing manuscripts end up? (It might play
host to the original Seven Pillars of Wisdom...)


Also what did it link and why does it not link them any more?

District line to bakerloo. The other end is the door facing you when
you get down the platform steps to the northbound bakerloo line.

I don't know why they stopped using it. They put escalators in, so it
wasn't compulsory any more, but I can't see why it wouldn't work as a
relief passage.

I don't know why its named as such - I'm sure someone will be along to tell
us why, if not we will have to wait till I'm out that way next and I'll
enquire! I think there are some references to it on the interweb so that may
turn up something of use.
