Denis Johnson is one of the most famous men to have lived in Longacre close, to the central Covent Garden Market. He took the basic design of the bicycle and patented the idea, inventing what was known as a 'hobby horse'. The bicycle was driven along by the person pushing the vehicle with their feet, although when a chain and peddles were later added the basic design of Johnson's framework stayed the same.
