Trivia/Query: Furthest distance from a tube station

[CardiffKid]

Hi,

Someone may have already worked this out but what is the furthest distance you can be from a tube station whilst still being in a central London area?

I'm after a street corner, block of flats or shop etc at ground level that is in central-ish London (say Zones 1-2) but a long way from a tube station.

I'd also be curious to ask the same question but to expand it to tube, DLR, National Rail and Tram (but not bus)

Along the A10, there are no tube stations between Seven Sisters and Liverpool Street, that's 4.5 miles. The Rio Cinema in Dalston is pretty much halfway along that route.

EDIT - No, scratch that. Highbury & Islington is only 1.2 miles west of the Rio

Where in London is over one mile from a station?

Last week I identified the handful of areas in London that are over two miles from a station. But that's quite a long way, indeed few people would dream of walking that far to start a commute. So a much more practical consideration is to identify areas over one mile from a station, that's about a twenty minute walk, because Londoners might potentially go that far on foot to catch a train.

• I'm allowing any type of station - tube, rail, DLR, whatever.
• I've decided to count Tramlink stops as stations, because trams run on rails and deliver you to places according to a set timetable.
• I'm measuring a mile in a straight line, even though there might not be a direct route. If this concerns you, please read thisCityMetric post.
• The distance is from one designated point at each station, which may not actually be the entrance.
