Broad Court is a short, part-pedestrian court in the eastern part of Covent Garden, running between Bow Street and Drury Lane close to the Royal Opera House. Despite its name it is a modest, intimate space, and its setting among the theatre buildings gives it a distinctly cultural surrounding. The court is a quiet counterpoint to the busy performance venues on either side, with a mix of residential and small commercial premises along its short length. Present use runs to flats, small businesses and pedestrian passage, and its part-paved, traffic-calmed character makes it a pleasant walking link between two of the district's principal streets. Broad Court sits at the heart of the theatre quarter, and it draws a share of the foot traffic moving between Bow Street and Drury Lane around performance times. For visitors, it offers a brief, sheltered stretch away from the main flow, valued for its position rather than for any single institution along it. Its scale preserves the older grain of Covent Garden while sitting within one of the most theatrically charged corners of the neighbourhood.
