Street stuff around England's capital for national hero (2,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

st george

'stuff around england's capital for national hero' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'street' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'street' could be 'st' and 'st' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'george' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

(Other definitions for st george that I've seen before include "Dragon-slayer" , "A cross chap" , "opponent of 1 across [DRAGON]" , "PANTO (part title)" , "This hero" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
