Holborn was a district in London.

During the London Event, a group of British Army soldiers made an ammunition run to the London Underground station at Holburn, but it was attacked by Yeti.

Captain Ben Knight and Corporal Lane retrieved some of the ammunition and explosives from Holburn and tried unsuccessfully to destroy the Yeti with it. (TV: The Web of Fear)

The Library of St John the Beheaded was located in Holborn, in the area known as the St Giles Rookery. (PROSE: All-Consuming Fire, Millennial Rites)
