Coleman Street is one of the 25 ancient wards of the City of London. It gives its name to a road linking Gresham Street with London Wall.
== The ward ==
Coleman Street borders six other wards〔Bishopsgate, Broad Street, Walbrook, Cheap, Bassishaw and Cripplegate〕 and occupies an irregular shape of land bounded to the north by Chiswell Street and Eldon Street; to the east by Blomfield Street, Copthall Avenue and a section of Moorgate; to the south by Lothbury and Gresham Street; and to the west by Basinghall Street, Coleman Street itself, Moor Lane and Silk Street.
Historically, it takes its name from the profession of charcoal burners who occupied the area in medieval times.〔''Book 2, Ch. 16: Coleman Street Ward'' in A New History of London: Including Westminster and Southwark, Noorthouck, J.: London, R. Baldwin & Co., 1773〕 A very busy ward,〔(City of London Police Overview )〕 it has its own long established ward club〔(Details of Organisation )〕 and newsletter.〔(Ward Newsletter )〕 Despite the bustle of business, the ward also contains the City’s "finest oasis of calm",〔''Betjeman's Britain'' Betjeman,J : London, Folio Society, 1999 ISBN 1-85848-170-8〕 Finsbury Circus, an elliptical square with its own bowling club, is located within the ward, as is Moorgate station.〔(Description of Locale )〕 Warren Stormes Hale, Lord Mayor of London in 1864, was the ward's most notable civic dignitary.
Coleman Street is one of 25 wards in the City of London, each electing an alderman to the Court of Aldermen and commoners (the City equivalent of a councillor) to the Court of Common Council of the City of London Corporation. Only electors who are Freemen of the City are eligible to stand.
