Charing Cross Road is a street in the West End of London. It runs north-south from Oxford Street to just short of Trafalgar Square. The name comes from the fact that it heads towards, although not directly to, Charing Cross Station just off Trafalgar Square. Underground stations on the road are Tottenham Court Road at the northern end and Leicester Square at the southern end, although it is within easy reach of all the West End attractions. It is mainly known as the centre for second hand and antiquarian bookshops, although in recent years the second hand shops have become fewer and shops selling new books have increased. One of the most famous was 84 Charing Cross Road, the subject of a novel and later a film. This no longer exists although a plaque commemorates its fame. Foyles at the northern end is one of the largest bookshops in the world and is renowned for its literary lunches. At the southern end where Charing Cross Road joins St Martin’s Lane is a statue of Edith Cavell, a nurse who was shot during World War I for helping allied soldiers escape from Belgium. The entrance to the National Portrait Gallery is nearby.
