| Description | Hounslow West Underground station, District line. The new station, designed by Charles Holden and constructed of Portland stone, is almost complete, although scaffolding still encircles the base of the tower. The station name can be seen on the entrance canopy, on which stands an open-framed pole-mounted roundel. Builder's material is piled in the forecourt of the building. Part of the original station building survives on the right of the shot. Two public telephone boxes stand, midground centre/right. |
