Suburban Towns and Villages within Twelve Miles’ Railway-distance.
The distances are measured from the terminal stations of the great Companies’ lines. The names of these stations are abbreviated thus:
Padd.—Paddington; Great Western.
Eust.—Euston Square; London and North Western.
K. C.—King’s Cross; Great Northern.
Shore.—Shoreditch; Great Eastern.
Fen.—Fenchurch Street; London and Blackwall.
L. B.—London Bridge; South-Eastern, and London and Brighton.
Wat.—Waterloo; London and South-Western.
Vic.—Victoria or Pimlico; Crystal Palace and other railways.
N. L.—North London.
Lud.—Ludgate Hill; London, Chatham, and Dover.
St. Panc.—St. Pancras; Midland.
The places accommodated by the North London Railway have no mileage distances named; for all the stations on that line are equally within the metropolitan limits. The Metropolitan Railway is not here mentioned at all, for a similar reason. For all stations on the South-Eastern, the distance from Charing Cross is about 1¾ miles farther than from London Bridge. On the Chatham and Dover, most of the stations are about equidistant from the Ludgate and Victoria termini. The places reached by steamers are marked St.; while Om. signifies Omnibus, in cases where there is no very available railway route. When a town is some little distance from the nearest station, two mileages are named: thus, ‘Beddington, 10½ Croydon + 2½,’ implies that after a railway journey of 10½ miles to Croydon, there are 2½ miles of road.
