Little Portugal in London

Hi there, 

 

Sorry if this post is in the wrong place, but I wasn't able to report this on the platform, so thought I should put it here. 

 

In London, there's an area around Old Street tube station that's marked on the map as "Little Portugal" (see link below). There is a Little Portugal in London, but it's nowhere near Old Street, and I can't figure out why this area is labelled incorrectly. 

 

 

The real Little Portugal is more in South London, on South Lambeth road near Vauxhall station - 

 

Any idea why the map is mislabeled? I'm sure there are quite a few Portuguese people that might be curious as well. 

 

Thank you!

Hi there, thanks for your response. Unfortunately it’s been more than a month since I posted about this and the incorrect information still hasn’t been addressed on the map. 

Do you think this is likely to change?

 

Thanks again!

Re: Little Portugal in London

Two months now and this still hasn't been addressed. To load up the map and still see a giant "Little Portugal" over Islington is a bit silly.
