The street is recorded on John Ogilby and William Morgan's Large Scale Map of the City As Rebuilt By 1676[2] which shows the plan of London after its rebuilding following the Great Fire of London in 1666.

Today the street is made up on the north side of the former post office buildings of 1 St Martin's Le Grand and on the south side of the headquarters of British Telecom.
