Fenchurch Street takes its name from a street in the City of London where the station frontage is situated. Unlike the other London termini Fenchurch Street has no London Underground station though is just a few hundred metres away from Tower Hill and Aldgate stations and Tower Gateway DLR station. One proposal for the Fleet Line (later Jubilee Line) would have had a station at Fenchurch Street though a different route was chosen for the Jubilee Line's Eastern extension in the end. [2]
