Hackney and Hoxton are popular destinations due to their bustling nightlife, while neighbourhoods like Angel and Spitalfields combine this social energy with a proximity to many historic buildings and businesses.

For the most part, London is pretty safe for tourists, especially when compared to other major capital cities, and Old Street is no exception. Even in the quieter areas though, residents are still advised to be aware of pickpockets, and it is not wise to leave any personal possessions unattended, as opportunistic thieves may operate within crowds.

Facts About Old Street

Though these days most closely associated with the tech start-up scene around Silicon Roundabout, the history of Old Street still dates back to the 13th century, when earliest records had it denoted ‘Ealdestrate’. Thought to be Roman in origin, Old Street and the surrounding area is steeped in a history much in keeping with the wider city. Here then are some of our favourite facts about the area surrounding Old Street, which new and returning visitors will find fascinating:

  • Due to the discovery of several ancient coins and remains in the nearby area, Old Street is believed to date back over 2000 years, and is believed to lie on a former Roman road connecting Silchester and Colchester.
  • Old Street has become a popular haunt of graffiti artists, including the likes of Banksy and Jef Aerosol, whose art has appeared several times on Shoreditch Bridge.
  • Boxpark, in nearby Shoreditch, is the world’s first pop-up mall. Featuring 60 shipping containers converted into shops and restaurants, it is a popular haunt for shopping and dining out, and a great way of starting a night on the town.
  • Old Spitalfields Market is one of London’s oldest markets, and dates back to 1638 when then King Charles I gave a licnce for ‘flesh, fowl and roots’ to be sold on a rural area on the outskirts of the City of London. The market still operates today, selling everything from fresh fruit and furniture to pastries and antiques.
  • The nearby Barbican Conservatory is a fantastic nature depository. Over 2,000 species of tropical plants are stored here, as well as hundreds of tropical fish. It’s also a hugely popular wedding venue, with capacity for up to 120 guests.
  • London’s first two theatres, The Theatre and The Curtain Theatre, were both built in nearby Shoreditch. The Lord Mayor of the time had prohibited plays being performed within the city walls, and so Shoreditch became a home of theatre and tomfoolery, the likes of which even attracted William Shakespeare to its streets.

Cost of Living in Old Street

Though less expensive when compared to some neighbouring parts of Central London, rental prices in and around Old Street can still be pretty high for most properties. The cost of an apartment can range anywhere from £900 to £2000+ per month, making serviced accommodation an increasingly viable option for longer term travellers, particularly given the many perks associated with extended stays that TheSqua.re offers its guests.

Day to day activities can range in price from the dear to the easily affordable, depending on a visitor’s choice. Weekly travel passes (for Zones 1-2) can run to upwards of £40, though there are discounts available for certain residents, while meals out can range from £15 for a meal for one to £55 for a three-course dinner for two. Medical costs will usually be far reduced thanks to the NHS, with residents normally needing to pay only for private healthcare treatments, cosmetic surgeries, or dental care.
