Hampden Road

This is one of my contenders for the shortest named street in London. It doesn't even get a name in google maps (although it does pinpoint the location - curious). The road was truncated when the park was developed (not sure when that was) and as the only building in it now seems to be the side of the Frame Emporium shop (whose address must be Holloway Rd) I imagine there are now no addresses in this street. Does this mean it will eventually lose its name?

Another of my shortest named street contenders. Along with Hampden Rd it was truncated for the development of Whittington Park. There is no actual property fronting this street, just the side of the tile shop(left) and pub (right). Again, I wonder if there are no longer any addresses associated with it the name too will disappear. Google maps shows Rupert Road on the other side of the park where the path comes out to Yerbury Rd, by the community centre. It's also shown here in my current A to Z and marked in the index as "not continuous". Must go and see if I can find a street name at the other end!

Scan from 1938/39 A to Z This shows: Hampden Road now truncated Rupert Road now truncated Ireton Road (gone) Milton Grove (gone) Does anyone have any pictures of this site before the park was there? Also, what date did it become a park? Update: Some history of the area before the park in a comment on my Street Stubs blog entry
