I thought this too. But couldn't find it on a search of the thread. There may have been a tag preposterously nearby, of course...

Diabolically close!

Old:
Model village in Brockwell Park, right next to the Temple. I've tried my hardest to make the new one link, so...New:
A subterranean torrent runs alongside Brockwell Park. It ends where one of London's first bridges can be seen twice a day. -

Dagnummit, I had that one up my sleeve for a future tag. Bravo.

Good tag, bad clue.

Oh, and if you recall the Subterranean London ride, it's not that one.

Been trying to identify this street for work. This is surely the place to ask :)

Well, I've found malandro's new one from my arm chair, but not by following his clue.
Don't worry, I shan't be chasing it, I'm indoors for a couple of days, inna norovirus kinda way... -

Old: Bomb shelter sign on Lord North Street, which is just off Great Peter Street, which is the solution to the cryptic clue:
Scramble! [Make an anagram of] Retreat Peg [these letters] - The bombers are coming! (5,5) [= Great Peter]
Or something like that...I think.
Anyway, Lord North Street has been home to two Prime Ministers, and also Lord Anderson, the Home Secretary who, during the Second World War, gave his name to the ubiquitous bomb shelters. The painted sign on the wall indicates the location of a bomb shelter (although presumably NOT an Anderson shelter).

Excellent new tag.
Proper chuffed about that.
Great marketing channel too. Maybe we could sell BTOB tags to ad agencies?
Felt sure this had been done but it hasnt!
