The old Shepherd's Bush station
Hammersmith & City
Where the name comes from
Named after the district. The name is thought to come from shepherds resting on the common land on their way to Smithfield Market; another theory is that it comes from a local person, as the area was recorded as "Sheppard's Bush Green" in 1635.
