This is another response
Oh wow this sounds like an amazing project! I go on walks around London to explore all the time, though I don't remember where everything is I have seen...
The door in the top right here: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y202/aliciaecm/Untitled1.jpg
is somewhere near the west end of Hackney Road. I think it's a pretty good door.
Also the tunnel that goes from Waterloo Station to the South Bank that's full of blue LED stars. I like that. Alicia Mitchell aliciaecm@gmail.com

Hi Ivy,
your email reminded me of i tree i have seen in clapham. If you walk on
the main road from clapham common towards clapham south, 2 minutes
down, on your right you will see the most interesting tree. It has a huge
bum shape and then two arms in the air.
Good luck with your project Rebecca Lucraft r.lucraft1@chelsea.arts.ac.uk

Hi Ivy,

Did you know that there are some dummy houses in London? They look like a house on the outside but behind is an open section of the London Underground! There is one at 23/24 Leinster Gardens, Paddington.

Something very interesting at Marble Arch other than the Tyburn Gallows is the Tyburn Convent. They have a website just google it.

Personally something I love about London is the old road signs that were painted on the brickwork of buildings and can still be seen… you’ll find one at Marylebone passage (which is a little cobbled passage by Oxford Circus).

If you need any help on places around the west-end just email me, hope this helps,

Sam.
