Then haue yée Brodestreete, whereof the warde taketh name,
which stretcheth out of the former streete, from the East corner

Walbroke, certaine postes of timber are there set vp: and this is
also the farthest West part of this ward, in the said street. Out of
the which street runneth vp Barthlemew lane south to the north

a marchants house on the West side, but not so farre on the East,
then the foresaid stréete, from this Finkes lane runneth downe by

foresaid, stretcheth to the North corner of Brodestréete, and then
turneth vp Brodestréete all that side to the East ende of the saide
Fryers church. It was builded by the saide Lord Treasurer, in
place of Augustine Fryers house, cloyster, and gardens &c. The
Fryers church hee pulled not downe, but the west ende thereof in-
closed from the stéeple, and quire is letten to the Dutch nation in
London to bee their preaching place: the other parte, namely,
the stéeple, quire and side yles hee reserued to housholde vses:
as for stowage of corne, cole and other things, his sonne and heyre
the Marquis of Winchester, sold the Monumentes of noble men
there buried in great number, the pauing stone, and whatsoeuer
(which cost many thousands) for one hundred pound, and in place
thereof made fayre stabling for horses, he caused the lead to bee ta-
ken off the roofes of the church, and laid tyle in place thereof, which
exchange of leade for tyle, proued not so profitable as he looked for,
but rather to his disaduantage.

West from this Church haue ye Skalding Alley, of olde time,
called Skalding house, or Skalding Wike, because that ground
for the most part was then imployed by Poulters, that dwelled
in the high streete, from the Stockes market to the great Con-
duit. Their Poultrie which they sold at their stalles were skal-
ded there, the streete doth yet beare the name of the Poultrie, and
the Poulters are but lately departed from thence into other streets
as into Grasse streete, and to the endes of S. Nicholas flesh
shambles. This Skalding Wike is the farthest west part of
Brodestreete ward, and is by the water called Walbrooke, par-
ted from Cheape warde: this Brodestreete warde hath an Al-
derman with his Deputie, common Counsellors ten, Constables
ten, Scauengers eight, Wardmote inquest thirteene, and a Bea-
dle. It is taxed to the fifteene, in London, at seauen and twentie
