Leather Lane is a street west of Hatton Garden, in the Holborn area of London. It is home to a well-used weekday market which specialises in clothing, footwear and fruit and vegetables. There are now many food retailers capitalising off the lunchtime trade offering a range of different foods from falafel wraps and burritos to hog roasts and jacket potatoes.
The lane was laid out in the medieval period following old fields and property boundaries.{{Cite web |url=http://camden.gov.uk/ccm/cms-service/stream/asset/?asset_id=2596377 |title=Archived copy |access-date=17 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150723215847/http://camden.gov.uk/ccm/cms-service/stream/asset/?asset_id=2596377 |archive-date=23 July 2015 |url-status=dead }}
