Ludgate Circus

Ludgate Circus is a road junction in the City of London where Farringdon Street/New Bridge Street (the A201) crosses Fleet Street/Ludgate Hill.

Fleet Street was the only direct road between the cities of London and Westminster till the Embankment was opened in 1870.

[2] Had the Fleet line of the London Underground been built, it would have had a station at Ludgate Circus.

In an episode of Rumpole of the Bailey is a wide shot of St Bride's Church and Ludgate Circus filmed c. 1988, before City Thameslink station was built.

[3] The Post Office's first coin-operated public call box was installed in 1906 at its Ludgate Circus branch, by the British subsidiary of Western Electric (incorporated in Britain in 1910).
