Officially the Ilchester Crescent station, this little chap has suffered not only from vandalism, but the foliage has now surrounded it. My father pointed me in the direction of this one as he grew up just a stone's throw from it. Clearly, it has been standing here for many years and has probably seen much change since before the war.
