EC1V sits just south of us — Old Street, Goswell Road, City Road, the streets around Bunhill Fields. We’re in EC1R on Arlington Way in Angel. Between the two postcodes, the journey is under twenty minutes on foot.
A lot of EC1V residents and workers make that trip regularly.
What EC1V Covers
EC1V takes in a wide stretch of inner east London — from the Old Street roundabout up through Islington’s southern edge. Goswell Road runs through the middle of it. City Road cuts across its eastern side. It’s a postcode with a mix of long-term residential streets, tech and media offices clustered around Old Street, and older communities in the estates and terraces further north.
Bunhill Fields — the historic Nonconformist burial ground on City Road — is one of its best-known landmarks, managed by theCity of London Corporation. It sits right in the middle of EC1V and tells you something about how long this area has been densely inhabited.
People who live here are close to the City, well connected, and often in workwear that needs proper maintenance.
