Piccadilly and Regent St.

See notes below.

It seems that the woman walks east across Trafalgar Square (lower right corner of map), up Cockspur St., then goes north up either Haymarket or Regent St. She then would cross Piccadilly (lower center of map) at Piccadilly Circus, and continue northwest up the L-shaped Regent St., which runs parallel to New and Old Bond St.

Piccadilly Circus, looking up Regent St. (below)

Regent St. was built in the early nineteenth century for the Prince Regent, later George IV, as a boundary between the "Nobility and Gentry" of Mayfair (to the west), and the mechanics and traders of Soho (to the east). "One of the most attractive streets in London," Regent St. "attracted the wealthy residents and the best shops, and the curving stretch between Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus, known as the Quadrant, was lavishly decorated with colonnaded terraces and buildings designed by many leading architects of the day" (Glinert 192).
