Holborn Circus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Holborn Circus
Holborn Circus is a junction of six highways in the City of London, on the boundary between Holborn and Smithfield. It was designed by the engineer William Haywood and opened in 1867. The term ''circus'' denotes a junction where several roads converge. Holborn Circus was described in Charles Dickens' ''Dictionary of London'' (1879) as "perhaps... the finest piece of street architecture in the City". ==Roads==
High Holborn (part of the A40 road) links Holborn Circus to the West End. To the east, Holborn Viaduct leads into the City of London financial district. Charterhouse Street and London's jewellery trade district of Hatton Garden exit Holborn Circus to the north. The district of Clerkenwell is to the north-east. New Fetter Lane (the start of the A4 road) and Shoe Lane exit to the south.
