Hungerford Bridge is a railway bridge that supports trains out
of Charing Cross station, originally built in 1864. On either side
are two 'new' pedestrian bridges allowing access to either side of
the river Thames. On the river, it is located between Westminster
Bridge and Waterloo Bridge, close to the London Eye.
If you are heading across to the South Bank Skate Park in
pursuit of mysterious ciphers like Sherlock, John and Raz, make
sure to turn to admire Charing Cross behind you. Making the trip at
dusk or even night time is highly recommended.
If you wanted to walk across in the same direction as Sherlock,
John and Raz, then you want to cross via the northern side of the
bridge, having come directly down Northumberland Avenue (presumably
via The Sherlock Holmes Pub). The nearest Tube station is
Embankment [Circle, District, Northern, Bakerloo] but this will
leave you on the wrong side of the bridge to make the onscreen
crossing - head south along Victoria Embankment and under the
bridge to find the other set of stairs up.
