Fleet Street got its name from the River Fleet, a stream that is now reduced to being an underground channel. The name Fleet Street is synonymous with the British newspaper industry. That is because almost all the newspapers once had their offices there. However, the press began to move out since the 1980's, and the last to go, Reuters, left Fleet Street in 2005. Nonetheless the name is still used as a metonym for the British national press.

Today the character of Fleet Street has evolved. There are now a high number of law firms and barristers' chambers along the street, along with inns and taverns.
