Its southern end was the wall of Exeter House garden and the back of the White Hart Inn in the Strand.
[2] Until 1872 the north part was called Brydges Street after the fourth earl's wife.
[4] The public houses in the street are Nell of Old Drury and the Opera Tavern, and there are a number of restaurants and bars.
The Opera Tavern was built (with No 21) in 1879 to a design by the architect George Treacher.
