Thieves’ Lane

Originally known as Trivet Lane, Trinet Lane, or Trinity Lane, Thieves’ Lane was located near St. Thomas Hospital and was just south of the area depicted on the Agas map (Parsons 56; Stow 1633, sig. 2Q6v). While very little information about this location remains, some scholars suggest that Thieves’ Lane later became a section of the modern St. Thomas Street (Parsons 56). If this is the case, Thieves’ Lane can be found on Rocque and Pine’s 1746 map (A Plan of the Cities of London and Westminster, and Borough of Southwark with Contiguous Buildings), where it is labelled St. Thomas’s Lane.
