Southbound platform: Of all the 94 platforms that were part of this massive decorative tiling project, this was the only one that had no interruptions along its full length. Access to and from the platform was via an opening in the headwall at the right-hand end (See Oxford Circus station). As such it was able to enjoy genuinely repeating patterns along almost its entire length. The platform was extended at the left-hand in the late 1930s (See Statistics) and today this platform has seven cross-passages disrupting the original wall. It was re-tiled in Victoria Line style (blue/grey square tiles) at the end of the 1960s and again from January 1983.
