lawrence lane is a street in the city of london that runs from trump street in the south to gresham street in the north. its final section in the north is pedestrianised. an alley also joins it to king street in the north. it once ran south to join cheapside but that end was blocked following post-second world war rebuilding. it was known as st lawrence lane from the 13th to the 18th centuries due to its proximity to the church of st lawrence jewry and until king street was built was the main route from cheapside to the london guildhall.
