The Caledonian Road passes for about a mile and a half north-south through the London Borough of Islington. It connects North London, from Camden Road near its junction with Holloway Road, and central London’s Pentonville Road in the south. It is known colloquially as the “Cally”.
The road is mostly residential from Camden Road until it reaches Caledonian Road tube station. Residential developments have been constructed around the station including student accommodation.
