Tagged as a central district for the borough of the same name—the London Borough of Islington—it is an old borough whose history can be traced back to the early 1000s. It is said that it was known hundreds of years ago as the Giseldone. Later on it was changed to Gislandune. Both names mean “Gisla’s Hill”. According to history, the name later on changed to Isledon and eventually to Islington.

The great and famous Royal Agricultural Hall was also founded and built here. It can be seen as a big building sandwiched between two towers. This was built in 1862 and it is situated on Liverpool Road. Being the largest building of its kind, it is now part of the Business Design Centre. What used to be its front entrance is now the back door of the Business Design Centre.
