  • Going, Going … Urban Geology at the End of an Era at Euston Station
    Urban Geology in London No. 27 Going, going … Urban Geology at the end of an era at Euston Station In the next few years, Euston Station will be, in planning strategy parlance, ‘regenerated’, and already the hoardings are going up. This will update the current, tired old 1960s buildings and make space for the coming of the locally much-despised HS2 link to the north of England. In the meantime, this guide is an opportunity to look at the surprisingly interesting urban geology of the area around the station. Catch it quick, it won’t be there for long. The original Euston Station was built in the late 1830s by railway engineer Robert Stevenson along with architects William Cubitt, Philip Hardwick and his son, P.C. Hardwick. This station was demolished in 1961- 2, to make way for a much larger building, serving trains to Scotland, north-west England and North Wales. This was not without protest; the infamous Euston Arch was also destroyed at the time and many fought for the preservation of this icon of early Victorian architecture. Its destruction heightened debate on the edifices of Britain’s industrial past that were being swept away in the name of modernism. The current station, which opened in 1968 was constructed by Taylor Woodrow Construction, with the plaza and surrounding offices designed by Seifert & Partners were built during the 1970s. The architecture, both past and present is described in Pevsner (Cherry & Pevsner, 1998) and in Stamp (2010). The latter book also contains restored photographs of the old station’s exteriors and interiors.
