'''Kingsland Road''' is the name given to an East London stretch of the A10 road within the London Borough of Hackney in England. The A10 was originally a Roman Road better known as Ermine Street or sometimes the Old North Road.
The name ''Kingsland Road'' is used from the junction with Old Street and Hackney Road (the section of the A10 south of this is Shoreditch High Street) north to the junction with Balls Pond Road and Dalston Lane, where it changes its name to Kingsland High Street. Kingsland Road means the road ''to'' Kingsland, an old settlement that has been absorbed by modern Dalston.
The quality and variety of architectural styles present along the road has led to the Kingsland Road corridor being designated a conservation area.<ref>London Borough of Hackney webpage containing documents and other details of the Conservation Area https://www.hackney.gov.uk/kingsland-ca</ref>
