Oh, I can totally see that. And I remember the opening of the Corn into Broad street, where it meets St. Giles, and the slight jog from one road to another, but here in the states, at least in the middle part, a road has one name until it turns. Sometimes, it has a name and a number, and sometimes, a road with a number will have various names in various towns along the road, but within one city, one street gets one name -- if I don't have to turn off of it, I must be on the same street.
But I still say the Corn becomes St Aldates at Carfax - my bicycle went in a straight line from where I turned into the Abingdon Road at White House Road, until I turned into Observatory....
