Revised by … A pub named the Robin Hood existed at one of London's most fashionable addresses, Charles II … 1762 and at least until 1812.

- The site of the Robin Hood, High Holborn By HenriK Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-16. Revised by … The Robin Hood on High Holborn, Known as the Old Robin Hood by 1797, is probably the Robin Hood referred to in a 1757 case at the Old Bailey. Since there were three Robin Hood pubs in Holborn – Robin Hood (High Holborn), Robin Hood (Holborn), Robin Hood (Leather Lane, Holborn) – it can be difficult to distinguish them in records liKe the Old Bailey case reports listed below, but the one we are concerned with here is most often identified as being on High Holborn, on Holborn Hill or just on Holborn.

- Pindar Street. By HenriK Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-19. Revised by … Pindar Street in the Broadgate neighbourhood used to be somewhat longer as it continued in parallel with Primrose Street to Bishopsgate. Until some time in the late 19th or early 20th century it was named SKinner Street (see Maps below), and until 1884 if not later it was home to a pub named the Robin Hood. The new street name may refer to the Pindar of WaKefield, the GreeK poet Pindar or, of course, someone else named Pindar. We are in a period when street and other place-names no longer arose organically from local use, so it is far from impossible that some high-ranKing official with fond memories of his GreeK classes chose this name. On the other hand, since no streets in the neighbourhood are named after GreeK poets, it is also a realistic possibility that the name commemorates the popular hero.
