Charing Cross Road, London

Charing Cross Road is a road in Central London. It starts at the intersection with Oxford Road, across from Tottenham Court Road, and goes southwards to end at St Martin-in-the-Fields Church. The road was named after the Charing Cross railway station, which in turn was named after Charing Cross.

Charing Cross Road is a popular place to go for second hand books and antiquarian shops. Most of these shops are located on the ground floor of low-cost housing known as housing associations. There are also regular bookstores such as Foyles and Borders, which are located almost opposite each other.

How to reach Charing Cross Road

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
