Marylebone High Street is a shopping street in London, running sub-parallel to Baker Street and terminating at its northern end at the junction with Marylebone Road. Given its secluded location, the street has been described as "the hidden wonder of the West End"[1] and it was voted Best Street in London in 2002 by listeners of BBC Radio 4, winning praise for its being "a haven in the middle of the frantic city."[2] Marylebone High Street was also an electoral ward of the City of Westminster from 2002 to 2022; its population at the 2011 Census was 10,366.[3]
