Vine Street, London
Vine Street is a street in Westminster, London, running from Swallow Street, parallel to Regent Street and Piccadilly. It is now a dead end that was shortened from a longer road in the early 18th century due to the building of Regent Street.
From the 18th to 20th century, it was home to Vine Street Police Station, originally a watch-house, but later one of the busiest police stations in the world, where the Marquess of Queensberry was charged with libel against Oscar Wilde. There was also a court house in the 18th and early 19th century. The street's association with law has led to it being grouped with Bow Street and Marlborough Street on the standard British Monopoly board.
==Geography==
The street is a dead end approximately long, running east and parallel to Piccadilly near Piccadilly Circus. It consists mainly of the rear facades of buildings facing onto other streets. It connects to Swallow Street at its western end, and Piccadilly Place halfway along. At the eastern end, the Man in the Moon Passage provides foot access to Regent Street.
