Walker's Court. The street dates from around the early 1700s and escaped modernisation in the late nineteenth century so that it retains its original narrow layout. In the twentieth century the small shops that traded from the street gradually closed and from the late 1950s the street became associated with Soho's sex trade. In 2015, plans were underway for the redevelopment of the immediate area to include a new theatre, retail and nightclub premises. In Maurice House there is now a cabaret nightclub.
