Gloucester Road, in the passage from the lifts to the platforms.
AFAIK it is the only four-flight arrow still in direct passenger-facing use on the entire Underground. The missing text includes one or more of PICCADILLY, KINGS CROSS, ARNOS GROVE and/or COCKFOSTERS.

Ah, thought it would be on the Picc, but took my chances. (Don't even remember if Goodge Street has green tiling or not!)  ;D |

Am I right in thinking that the older the sign, the more flights on the arrow? If so, and 4 flights were still in use in 1933 for the Cockfosters extension, when did they start reducing them?

Clapham Common has a four flight arrow as well. The S&SD intranet describe it as being from 1924.
