Salter's Road in Walthamstow is named after him. He had previously owned the land there.
In 1725 a grant of waste was made to Sir John Salter for the building of a row of houses later known as Salter’s Buildings.
"Salter's Buildings (alias Forest Rise). Name correctly applied to the buildings in the Lea Bridge Road section of Forest Rise 1725-1820 but incorrectly applied to the buildings in the other section of Forest Rise c1777 onwards. Name also applied to the roadway."
The National Archives have his will PROB 11/735/1
