I was about Euston Station today.
I seen a Wetherspoon near Euston Station, so I did go there, just after I got some Evening Standards. The Captain Flinders , 34-38 Evershot Street , Euston Square.

Pub history
Archaeologists working at the Euston station redevelopment (as the London HS2 terminus) discovered the remains of Captain Matthew Flinders. The Royal Navy explorer led the first circumnavigation of Australia (1801–03) and is credited with giving the country its name. He was not the first to use the term, but his work and publications popularised it. On the station’s main concourse is a statue of Flinders leaning over a map, with his pet cat Trim.
