From Underground Station to pub is quite a change, but this fine looking building, now a pub in the Wetherspoon's estate, was formerly Fulham Broadway station on London Underground's District Line. Wetherspoon's website says "This distinctive property comprises the grade II listed former entrance building and ticket hall of Fulham Broadway tube station. Designed by the railway company architect Harry W Ford, the Edwardian baroque-style entrance was built in 1910 on the site of the original station entrance, which first opened on 1 March 1880. The station was called Walham Green, after the village which occupied what is now Fulham Broadway. Over 70 years later (in 1952), the name was changed to Fulham Broadway." A picture from 1991 shows it back in its days as a station. Image
