I think you are referring to Quatermass and the Pit, made in 1967 with Andrew Keir as Quatermass. Interestingly, the superior 1958 BBC serial where Andre Morell played Quatermass had the station as Hobbs Lane--no idea why lane became end in the film version.

Correct, of course! Great film, very spooky when I first watched it, special effects seem a bit wobbly now but still enjoyable!
