Boyle Street is a short street in central London that is named after the Boyles, the Earls of Burlington, and is on land that was once part of the Burlington Estate. The street runs east-west from the junction of the Coach and Horses Yard and Old Burlington Street, to Savile Row. On its north side is an office block and on the south side is the West End Central Police Station. ==History== Although all offices today, the street once had houses and other buildings. The Burlington Charity Schoolhouse was built in the street in about 1720, for a girls school originally founded in 1699 (the Burlington School for Girls).〔 Lord Sidney Beauclerk, son of the Duke of St. Albans and father of Topham Beauclerk, lived at number 1.〔"Cork Street and Savile Row Area: Table of notable inhabitants on the Burlington Estate" in ''Survey of London: Volumes 31 and 32: St James Westminster, Part 2.'' 1963, pp. 566-572.
