Houndsditch, City of London, England

Houndsditch is a historic street and locality name running along the eastern edge of the City of London, straddling the City boundary with Aldgate/Whitechapel; it was never a civil parish, and the name has remained purely topographical while its administrative context depends on which side of the City boundary a particular address lay. Houndsditch is a street/locality whose correct place name depends entirely on whether the address lies inside the City of London or in the adjacent Whitechapel/St Botolph without Aldgate area.
