                ps on my recent day trip to that Yorkshire no pensioners were actually poisoned. Enjoyed breakfast at Donny Services, lunch at the excellent Harbour Bar (actually an ice-cream parlor) in Scarborough. Haltemprice and Howden are real places where we got stuck behind a slow-moving bus after leaving the M62. There's also a nearby hamlet called Land of Nod

                                    Sorry, 'gasometer' isn't the solution. But you're on the right lines.

                                        Apologies for that last of mine- should have mentioned the tube station in the clue

                                          Am I anti- gentrification? Plumstead Bus Garage? Just ends up as a possibly irrational bias (7)

                                          (just continuing the SE London theme, if only to suggest not all locals paid £750,000 for their home)

                                              Isn't the tube station "Oval" rather than "The Oval" though?

                                                Yes

                                                In other London Underground news, Dear Leaderene Sian Berry is gurning about plans to rename White Hart Lane after Tottenham Hotspur.

                                                  Stockwell's a place and not just a tube station and it's next to The Oval (unless you count South Lambeth as a place) so the original clue stands up.

                                                  And WHL isn't on the underground, but I suspect you knew that.

                                                    Cap- my first flat in London was near the Oval. I don't expect anyone bar South Londoners to have heard of Stockwell

                                                    I had a look around the WHL stadium perimeter a few weeks before it opened so should have remembered that. Apols
