Shelton Street runs through the northern part of Covent Garden, within the network of streets that connect the Seven Dials area to the wider district. It is a working street lined with a mix of buildings, offices and small businesses, set slightly back from the busiest shopping and theatre routes. The street carries a steadier and more local flow than the streets around the Piazza, serving those who live and work in this part of the area. Its buildings reflect the varied fabric of Covent Garden, combining converted upper floors with ground floor premises. Shelton Street sits close to the independent shops and restaurants of the Seven Dials quarter, and its position gives quick access to the surrounding streets while keeping a calmer character of its own. The street forms part of the practical framework of the district, linking one part of the area to another and supporting the everyday activity that runs alongside the visitor trade. Its plain, functional feel makes it a useful connector within the closely built streets of this corner of Covent Garden.
