Leather Lane is a street west of Hatton Garden, in the Holborn area of London. It is home to a well-used weekday market which specialises in clothing, footwear and fruit and vegetables. There are now many food retailers capitalising off the lunchtime trade offering a range of different foods from falafel wraps and burritos to hog roasts and jacket potatoes.
The lane was laid out in the medieval period following old fields and property boundaries. [1]
The Bourne Estate is a group of well-regarded Edwardian tenement blocks on the west side of the Lane.
