Midland Road
St. Pancras, London, NW1 2AD
Midland Road provided access to the west side of St. Pancras Station, whose arches contained a number of businesses, including "Transit Workshop" (no 9), AM Auto Electricians (no 25), and the Cavern Auction Rooms (no 47) that was utilised in Spearhead from Space as UNIT HQ.
The road was closed during the construction of the new St. Pancras International Terminal; the station was formally opened on 6th November 2007 and the road re-opened. The reconstruction meant that all the old premises along this stretch of Midland Road were demolished and rebuilt.
