All aboard as the Hidden London Hangouts team head to Hyde Park Corner station. The original Leslie Green designed station opened in December 1906, and you can in fact still see the ox blood coloured tiles today. The building's use changed when escalators replaced the lifts in May 1932 and it is now one of the few stations which has no associated buildings above ground.
