Little Britain runs almost from Smithfield Market to King Edward Street, within sight of St Paul’s, where it takes a sudden sharp left turn.
No. 75, on that corner, was built by St. George Homes and it was one of the largest developments of flats in the City, with 140 flats on six floors. It is a nice location. But an additional attraction is that rear and side flats look out over Postman’s Park. Apart from No. 75 Little Britain, White Horse House at No. 1 Little Britain has 9 flats; No. 2 Little Britain has three flats; Buckley House at No. 4 Little Britain contains eight flats; and finally Wesley House at No. 5 Little Britain has 17 flats.
The northern end of Little Britain has seen considerable development, much of it by Barts Hospital, including the ambitious Barts Square development.
No. 90 Bartholomew Close has a substantial frontage to Little Britain. It also is part of Barts Square.
No. ‘One’ Bartholomew Close is a recent major commercial block which partly fronts Little Britain.
‘Little Britain’ – the building rather than the street – is on the other side of the road
