We answered

TfL Ref 1521-2021 

 Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 2 November 2020 asking for information about the total square footage of a number of disused TfL stations. 

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. 

Unfortunately we do not hold the square footage of the stations you’ve asked about.  Additionally, a number of sites on that list are no longer in our ownership and are now either totally demolished or in the hands of private owners. These are highlighted yellow in the list. Where highlighted green the surface buildings have been sold and redeveloped.  Please also note that Charing Cross is part of an operational station; we are not aware of a disused station at South Harrow. I’m sorry we are not able to assist any further with your request.
