L11 - Piccadilly - Gentleman Shopping

“This shopping route takes you along a section of London’s famous Piccadilly - the road that runs from Green Park Station to Piccadilly Circus Station. It is famous for its iconic places such as The Royal Academy, the Ritz Hotel, Fortnum and Masons and Piccadilly Circus. Piccadilly is at the crossroads between Mayfair to the north and St James’s to the south.
Piccadilly has been a main road since at least medieval times, and in the middle ages it was known as "the road to Reading". By the middle of the 18th century, Piccadilly had become developed as far as Hyde Park Corner. The development of St James's and Mayfair, in particular, made Piccadilly into one of the busiest roads in London.”
