The sundial where seven streets meet. The midpoint from Covent Garden to Soho. Next is Soho — do not also stack Notting Hill the same day.
Analysis
Seven Dials is one district, not every street on a list. The junction is there all day. One loop of the main street, then leave by Covent Garden. Do not stitch the next district onto the same afternoon.
