Grammar Police

Metroline VW1828, BK10MFJ, on route 207 to Shepherd's Bush at Twyford Avenue in Ealing Common.

 

The days of seeing an apostrophe in Shepherd's Bush are over as powers up high in TfL have decreed that Shepherd's Bush is no more, and now will only ever will be Shepherds Bush without the apostrophe. This is despite the area originally belonging many years ago to a person called Mr Sheppard which, over the centuries, evolved into Mr Shepherd. However despite all this, both underground stations in the area will continue to maintain the apostrophe in Shepherd's Bush as is grammatically correct.

Anyone for consistency?
