High Holborn

 
Wikipedia: High Holborn

High Holborn (pronounced hoe burn) is a road in Holborn in central London, England. It starts in the west near St Giles' Circus, then goes east, past the Kingsway and Southampton Row, and continues east. The road becomes Holborn at the junction with Gray's Inn Road.

Informally, it forms the southern boundary of the Bloomsbury district and the northern boundary of the Holborn district. Part of it, the western end nearest St Giles' Circus, forms the northern border of Covent Garden.
