Charing Cross, which is on the southern side of Trafalgar Square.
Historically this was the entrance to the Palace of Whitehall which was the seat of government in Middle-Ages England

Charing Cross.
For a bonus - the distances on the mileposts along the Great Western Main Line aren't from the buffer stops at Paddington, they're measured from the platforms of Paddington Bakerloo Line.

Charing Cross. Queen Eleanor's Cross was moved to Charing Cross from the first rest stop of her funeral cortege. No idea whether this is reason as to why Charing Cross is used to measure distance from but interesting bit of trivia anyhow.

Yes, I agree with Charing Cross, Westminster.
Even though it is quite central it is not because of its geographical location, the real reason goes back over 700 years to the reign of Edward I.
