"Streets, London and Westminster Act 1662"?

[edit]

I have removed Streets, London and Westminster Act 1662 from the article. I found no evidence that this name was ever used before Wikipedia. Maybe it was so listed in the index of some book not on Google Books; but even if that is so, I would surmise that was an ad-hoc description by the book's indexer, not evidence of a wider currency. Acts that were repealed or spent prior to the introduction of short titles have sometimes had unofficial informal names used for convenience (and hence eminently usable by Wikipedia) but I don't think this act is one of those. jnestorius(talk) 14:11, 6 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
