Any older offerings with a vague transport connection?

William Baker, of Baker Street - partial (and unwitting) contributor
to the Bakerloo line name. Started laying out the street in 1755

That beats Lord Liverpool (after whom a Street is named) or William
Praed. But St James's Park dates to 1603, and Leicester Square to 1630.

I'll offer St Pauls's and 604 as the oldest yet. Can anyone beat that?

London Wall?
Aldgate?
Aldersgate?
London Bridge?
Tower Hill?
City Thameslink?
I'm not sure I understand the question.

I think Roland means items named after a person( s) .
As he said a vague transport connection I reckon Hadrians wall as
contolling passage between the areas it divided may count and be a
contender .

I think it would count, yes. (AD122)

I suppose somebody will now pop up with a stone tablet on
which it will show that Stonehenge was really a Roundabout.
