The shortest road name (name, not number) in the UK that I've found so far is A.B. Row in Birmingham. Is there a shorter one (Avenue and Street etcetera not Ave and St etc)?

Nice one. Ta. [heads off to look for London A-Z]
[comes back with A-Z] Sorry, it's North Row according to Philips. Google also list an N Row in Magor, but that's also North http://www.4hotels.co.uk/uk/newport-gwent17231.html
Thanks for the A.B. info, anyway.
I've now found one that possibly counts as shorter than A.B. Row. That has five letters, but two stops as well. I passed a road in a district of Huddersfield the other day and couldn't believe what I thought the name plate said. Eventually found my West Yorkshire Street Guide and I was right. It did say Solid. OK, anyone know why a little side road should be called Solid? Not Solid Place or Road. Just Solid.
