Anne Naylor was the 12-year old girl who was murdered by her employer in 1758 and her body was thrown to the place where the station was constructed.

The London Tombs

The London Tombs now stand on the site which was used as mass grave for people who died of the plague. A resident ghost, Emily, was often said to roam around the tombs.
