what about Seven Sisters? i know that's a road, a roundabout and a

how?).

No, I think it was after a line of seven trees (The Seven Sisters) that
once upon a time lined the street. Maybe they were identical, or
something, I don't know.

(Rather like the seven oaks in Sevenoaks, six of which were felled by
the Great Storm of 1987).
