Warwick Avenue, London

The street, originally called Green Lane and then Warwick Road, before being renamed Warwick Avenue, was named after Jane Warwick of Warwick Hall, Cumbria, whose father-in-law was John Morehead, who in turn was the son-in-law of Robert Thistlethwaite, who leased the land.

[1] At the junction of Warwick Avenue with Warrington Crescent and Clifton Gardens is the Anglican Church of St Saviour, consecrated in 1856 but rebuilt in a modern style from 1973 to 1976.

Warwick Avenue houses one of the remaining thirteen Grade II listed Cabmen's Shelters used by London's taxi drivers as a place to buy food and (non-alcoholic) drink.

[3] Also Grade II listed is the bridge over the Regent's Canal which Warwick Avenue crosses.

"Warwick Avenue", a 2008 single from the album Rockferry by Duffy, took its name from the location after the singer accidentally alighted at Warwick Avenue tube station when unfamiliar with the London Underground.
