Those are great pictures. Are those apartments over the little stores?? I like the last picture too. Are both those roads for people walking?? Sorry for all the questions. It is just interesting to me.

It comprises of the underground station a pharmacy, souvenir and theatre ticket shop etc and a Sherlock Holmes statue, the other end unattached is The London Planetarium and Madame Tussauds
Their was apartments above i am not sure about now though.

Yes the roads are for people walking the taxi’s and buses stop there for the station and a hotel opposite.

lots of interesting buildings! I was surprised by the Sherlock Holmes Hotel as well, LOL! The Marylebone Station looks like a school building to me, maybe there is a school I’ve been to with that architecture?

@ zezebel
Hi zezebel, a good point
The pics are a bit deceiving in that respect really as it was i went out quite early to avoid the crowds and also it was starting to rain,

also to get a shot from across the other side of the road i had to wait for the traffic to stop at the traffic lights lol.

Thanks for stopping by :-)

I went to London last month to attend the Farnborough airshow, and really enjoyed touring (and shopping) around the city!
I took picture of Sherlock Holmes pub, but can’t remember if I saw the hotel. Are they at the same area?

Hi,

No, the hotel is in Baker Street and the pub is between Trafalgar Square and Charing Cross which is the one you are talking about i presume, it’s a nice pub.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting :-)
