Hi Joe
I thought the Horsefair was actually the end of what most think of as being Bristol Street, where the underpass begins to go under the island. In other words this Holloway Circus roundabout is at the junction of Holloway Head, coming down from Bath Row, and the Horsefair, coming along from Bristol Street, so in a way I suppose we are both right. At one time there was a lovely mosaic showing the Horsefair as it was back in olden day actually on the island itself - I wonder if this is still there? I haven't been that way in many a year now, so hope it still is there. As I said, I use most of the Brummy names in the article, rather than the 'official' ones, but the 'Pagoda Island' one is new to me - there again I am an old codger!
