The name derives from the fact that this ancient route through the area was the main cattle driving route from the North into London's cattle market, Smithfield. As with similar ancient cattle driving routes, the way became sunken leading to the name Holloway, a sunken road. Even in Roman times it was the main route to the North and Scotland and much of the Holloway Road has a Roman base to it. Holloway Road is one of the nearest parts of the A1 to its start in London.
Until the 19th century the area was predominantly rural, but as London expanded in the second half of the 19th century it became built-up. By the 1960s much of Holloway was covered with run down late Victorian terraced housing, and the area had a reputation as a dour district with many larger properties used for light industrial purposes. Today Holloway is still one of the poorer parts of Islington, and it has, until recently, missed out on the gentrification that has occurred in many of the other areas of Islington. However, there are signs that gentrification has at last arrived, particularly in the Mercers Road/Tavistock Terrace conservation area. Holloway is often best known for its prison, HMP Holloway in Parkhurst Road, which was first built in 1852, originally housing both male and female prisoners, but since 1902 it has housed only women and is the UK's major female prison. Prisoners that have been held at the original prison include Mary Pankhurst and Oscar Wilde. At the 2001 census, the population of Holloway was 11,214, of those 47% male and 53% female.
Arsenal Football Club is moving, after 93 years in Highbury to a new stadium in Ashburton Grove in Holloway. It was informally known as Ashburton Grove until a naming rights deal with the airline Emirates was announced, and that name is still used by some people. The stadium is scheduled to open in the summer of 2006, and will have an all-seated capacity of 60,000, making it the second biggest stadium in the Premiership after Old Trafford and the third biggest in London after Wembley Stadium and Twickenham Stadium. The overall cost of the project is £390 million. The stadium topped out in August 2005, and is reported to be ahead of schedule and on budget. The Arsenal football club has announced that all of the hospitality boxes have been taken,and by February 2006 90% of the club tier seats had been sold. The first seat in the new stadium was installed on March 13th 2006 by Arsenal midfielder Abou Diaby.
