Lawrence Lane, London

It once ran south to join Cheapside but that end was blocked following post-Second World War rebuilding.

It was known as St Lawrence Lane from the 13th to the 18th centuries due to its proximity to the church of St Lawrence Jewry and until King Street was built was the main route from Cheapside to the London Guildhall.

[2] During the London Pageant of 1621 an artificial mountain was built on the lane as the seat of Phoebus Apollo and the zodiac, to celebrate the inauguration of Edward Barkham as Lord Mayor of London.

Archaeological excavations on the site in 2001 recovered Roman remains.
