I'm aiming for nil points A: Leytonstone B: Hounslow West
D: Southfields
Inset B2: Greenwich +1
I just cannot see any link between my three guesses - hence my expectation of getting nil points.

C is Abbey Road and I think there's a "Green" connection to the insets. I suspect that background A is Hither Green while inset D1 is Drayton Green.

Continuing the "Green" theme, I think the background to C is the site of Stroud Green station, with the stationmaster's house visible.

A is not Gants Hill and I don't think that would fit the theme.

B has already been identified as Bounds Green, it doesn't appear here twice.

B has already been identified as Bounds Green, it doesn't appear here twice. So it has to be Manor House.

Inset B1 and how the locations fit the theme of "Green"

Post by xplaistow on Feb 24, 2021 17:20:08 GMT
The best I can come up with is that Manor House is on Green Lanes, Abbey Road is near the Greenway and Wimbledon Park is named after a green space. Bounds Green, of course, has green in the name.

Bounds Green, of course, has green in the name. 3 of 4: Manor House is indeed on Green Lanes, Abbey Road is one of the closest stations to the Greenway and Bounds Green is obvious. However the park is not why Wimbledon Park was chosen.
