Oat Lane, in Aldersgate Ward and drawn on the Agas map, ran east-west and connected Noble Street in the west to Staining Lane in the east.
On the corner of Oat Lane and Staining Lane stood the church of St. Mary Staining.
In 1961, the Worshipful Company of Pewterers established their third Pewterers’ Hall on Oat Lane.
