The first proper underground railway in it's modern definition (small, almost circular tunnels) was ran by City & South London Railway between Stockwell and King William Street. King William Street is now closed, but it was near current Bank station.

The King William Street tracks were disconnected from the network when C&SLR was extended north to Angel.
