the inset picture is deliberately there. It is not necessarily relevant to the station though.

Bromley-by-Bow [Aspect] Still a bonus point for working out the inset and the reason it was chosen. *Click either image for a larger version*

I'm not sure, but I have a feeling that is Wells Cathedral.

It is....... But it sort of needs expanding on..... Completely stumped now as the only thing I can add is that it's taken from the Bishops Palace (I think!).

It's sort of specific to yesterday as well as today.

Bromley-by-Bow church (St Marys) is mentioned in the Canterbury Tales, and Wells was featured in the film THE CANTERBURY TALES.
Techniques used on the restoration of Wells cathedral are being used on the 1776 tide mill, House Mill, at Bromley by Bow. Cathedral Church of St Andrew! St. Andrew's Day! In the park at the junction of Devons Road and Reeves Road. One of three pieces of masonry forming a group. The stones were found in a pile in the railway yard that once occupied the site of this park. The three have been set up on end as small parallel pillars. The title also reflects the fact that the stones were rescued and reused. As this stone shows a winged angel, it was probably part of a church. It might have come from St Andrew's Church which once stood near here and gave its name to the partially closed hospital on the other side of Devons Road quoting: exploringeastlondon.co.uk/Bromley/Bromley.htm

You are on the way there. Remember this quiz is from yesterday, and St Andrews Day is today......... The surrounding area is the key......

My suggestion is that the the cathedral has the same name as the hospital site (near to the B-b-B station), which apparently is to have properties built on it?
