While strolling along Charing Cross Road, one would never suspect the presence of an even older street lying beneath it. Little Compton, a street that existed in the past, was once overlaid by it.

As evidence of this, remnants of Little Compton can still be observed in the form of a utility tunnel, discreetly concealed with railings and grills along the road.
