A street in Central London a few minutes walk from the Palace of Westminster. It runs West from Parliament Square which connects it to Bridge Street which runs past Parliament to the river Thames. It takes up only a block and then continues running West as Birdcage Walk at the junction with Horse Guards Road.

Only No. 1 remains standing on the Sough side of the road and it is the global headquarters of the Institution of Civil Engineers.[1] Since 1989 it has also functioned as a conference and wedding venue under the name of One Great George Street[2]
