THe next Ward is
called of Creple
gate
, and consisteth
of divers streets &
lanes, lying as well
without the Gate
and VVall of the
City, as within.
First, within the VVall on the East part
thereof, towards the North, it runneth
to the west side of Bassings Hall Ward:
& towards the South, it joyneth to the
Ward of Cheap, it beginneth at the west
end of St. Laurence Church in the Iury,
on the North side, and runneth west to a
Pumpe, where sometime was a Well
with 2. Buckets, at the South corner of
Alderman bury street, which streete run
neth down North to Gay-spur lane, & so
to London Wall, which street and lane are
wholly (on both sides) of this Ward, and
so be some few houses (on both the sides)
from Gay-spur lane, by and against the
Wall of the City, East to the Grates,
made for the water-course of the chan
nels, and west to Creplegate.
Now on the South side,
From the Standard to the Crosse in Cheape, on the North side, is of Creplegate Ward.
from over-against
the west end of Saint Laurence
Church
to the Pumpe, & then up Milk
street
, South unto Cheape, which Milk
street
is wholly (on both the sides) of Cre
plegate
Ward
, as also without the South
end of Milkstreet, a part of West Cheape,
to wit, from the Standard to the Crosse,
is all of Creplegate Ward. Then downe
great Woodstreete, which is wholly of
this VVard on both the sides thereof;
so it little Woodstreete, which runneth
downe to Creplegate.
Out of this Woodstreete be divers lanes;
namely, on the East side is Lad lane,
which runneth East to Milkstreete cor
ner; downe lower in Woodstreete is Love
lane
, which lyeth by the South side of
S. Albans Church in Woodstreet, and run
neth down to the Conduit in Alderman
bury streete
. Lower downe in Wood
streete
, is Addlestreete, out of the which
runneth Philip lane downe to London
VVall
. These be the Lanes on the East
side.
On the west side of Woodstreete, is
Huggen lane, by the South side of S. Mi
chaels
Church
, and goeth thorow to Gu
therous lane
. Then lower is Maiden lane,
which runneth VVest to the North end
of Gutherons lane, and up the said Lane
on the East side thereof, till against
Kery lane, and backe againe: then the
said Maiden Lane, on the North side, go
eth up to Staining lane, and up a part
thereof on the East side, to the farthest
North part of Haberdashers Hall; and
backe againe to Woodstreete, and there
lower downe is Silverstreete, which is
of this VVard, till yee come to the East
end of St. Olaves Church on the South
side, and to Monkes-well streete on the
North side; then down the said Monkes
well streete
on the East side thereof, and
so to Creplegate, doe make the bounds
of this VVard within the wals.
Without Creplegate, Forestreete run
neth thwart before the Gate, from a
gainst the North side of Saint Giles
Church
, along to More lane end, and to a
Posterne lane end, that runneth betwixt
the Towne ditch on the South, and cer
taine Gardens on the North, almost to
Moregate; at the East end of which lane
is a Pot-makers house, which house,
with all other the Gardens, Houses, and
Allies on that side to More-fields, till
yee come to a Bridge and Cow-house,
neere unto Fensbury Court, is all of Cre
plegate
VVard
.
Of these More-fields you have former
ly read,
An. 1477. Rose Ioccline then being L. Maior.
what a moorish rotten ground
they were, unpassable, but for Caws
waies purposely made to that intent;
what they were also in our owne neerer
times of memory, even till Sir Leonard
Dd

Hallyday was Lord Maior of London, I
am very well assured many doe perfect
ly remember: And what they are now
at this instant, by the honourable cost
and care of this City, and the industri
ous paines and diligence of that worthy
Citizen, Master Leate, wee all (to our
continuall comfort) doe evidently be
hold. M. Iohn Speed, my especiall kinde
friend; acquainted me with the draught
of a Mappe, done after that true shape
and modell, as at the first (by the fore
named Gentleman) they were inten
ded, and laboured with the then Lord
Maior, and Court of Aldermen, that the
same might have bin accordingly effe
cted. But how it was prevented, I know
not, only I purposed to have beene at so
much charge, as to have had that Map
(in some apt & convenient forme) prin
ted in this booke: but that I could not
attaine thereto; being promised, that at
the next impression I shall have it.
For the Walkes themselves, and con
tinuall care of the City, to have them
in that comely & worthy maner main
tained: I am certainly perswaded, that
our thankfulnesse to God being first
truely performed, they are no meane
cause of preserving health and whole
some ayre to the City, and such an eter
nall honour thereto, as no iniquity of
time shall ever be able to deface.
Then to turne backe againe through
the said Posterne lane to More lane,
which More lane, with all the Allies and
buildings there, is of this Ward. After
that is Grubstreete, more than halfe
thereof to the streightning of the street,
next is White-crosse street, up to the end
of Beech lane; and then Red-crosse street
wholly, with a part of Golding lane, even
to the Posts there placed, as a bounder.
Then is Beech lane before spoken of,
the East side of the Red-crosse, and the
Barbican streete, more than halfe there
of, toward Aldersgate street, and so have
you all the bounds of Creplegate VVard
without the wals.
Now for Antiquities and Ornaments
in this Ward, to be noted: I finde, first
at the meeting of the corners of the Old
Iury
,
A Pumpe at the cor
ner of Al
derman-bury
street
.
Milkstreet, Lad lane, and Alderman
bury
, there was (of old time) a faire
Well with two Buckets, of late yeeres
converted to a Pumpe. How Alderman
bury streete
took that name, many fables
have been bruted, all which I overpasse,
as not worthy the counting: but to bee
short, I say, this streete tooke the name
of Aldermans bury (which is to say, a
Court) there kept in their Bery, or Court
Hall, now called the Guild Hall, which
Hall (of old time) stood on the East side
of the same street, not far from the West
end of Guild Hall now used.
Touching the Antiquity of this old
Aldermans bury or Court,1 I have not
read other, than that Richard Renery, one
of the Sheriffes of London, in the first of
Richard the first
, which was in the yeere
of Christ, 1189. gave to the Church or
Saint Mary at Osney by Oxford, certaine
ground and rents in Alderman bury of
London, as appeareth by the Register of
that Church, as is also entred into the
Hoistings of the Guild Hall in London.
This old Bery, Court, or Hall conti
nued, and the Courts of the Maior
& Aldermen
were continually holden
there, untill the new Bery, Court, or
Guild hall that now is, was builded & fi
nished, which Hall was first begun to be
founded in the yeere 1411. and was not
fully finished in 20. yeers after. I my self
have seene the ruines of the old Court
Hall, in Alderman-bury streete, which of
late hath beene imployed as a Carpen
ters yard, &c.
In this Alderman-bury street be divers
faire houses on both the sides, meete for
Merchants or men of worship, & in the
midst therof is a faire Conduit, made at
the charges of W. Eastfield, sometime
Maior, who took order as well for water
to be conveyed from Teyborne, & for the
building of this Conduit, not far distant
from his dwelling house; as also for a
Standard of sweet water to be erected in
Fleetstreet, all which was done by his Ex
ecutors, as elsewhere is shewed.
Then is the Parish Church of S. Mary
Aldermanbury
, a faire Church, with a
Church-yard & Cloister adjoyning, in
the which Cloister is hanged & fastned
a shanke-bone of a man (as is said) very
great,
Shanke
bone of a man 28. inches & a halfe long.
and larger by 3. inches & a halfe,
than that which hangeth in S. Laurence
Church in the Iurie
; for it is in length
28. inches and a halfe of assise, but not
so hard and steely, like as the other, for
the same is light, and somewhat pory
and


and spongy. This bone is said to bee
found amongst the bones of men remo
ved from the Charnell house of Pauls,
or rather from the Cloyster of Pauls
Church
: of both which reports I doubt,
for that the late Reyne Wolfe,
Reyne Wolfe a grave Antiqua
ry, colle
cted the great Chroni
cles, in
creased, & published by his Ex
ecutors, under the name of Ralph Ho
lenshead
.
Stationer
(who payd for the carriage of those
bones from the Charnell to the More
fields
) told mee of some thousands of
Carre loads and more to bee conveyed,
whereof he wondred; but never told of
any such bone in either place to bee
found, neither would the same have bin
easily gotten from him, if he had heard
thereof, except he had reserved the like
for himself, being the greatest preserver
of antiquities in those parts for his time.
True it is, that this bone (from whence
soever it came) being of a man, as the
forme sheweth) must needes bee mon
strous, and more than after the propor
tion of five shanke bones of any man
now living amongst us. There lye buri
ed in this Church Simon Winehcombe, E
squire, 1391. Robert Combarton, 1422.
Iohn Wheatly
, Mercer, 1428. Sir Willi
am Estfild
, Knight of the Bath, Maior,

Church, under a faire Monument: he al
so builded their steeple, changed their
old Bels into 5. tuneable Bels, and gave
100. l. to other workes of that Church.
Moreover, he caused the Conduit in
Aldermanbury
, which he had begun, to
be performed at his charges, and water
to be conveyed by pipes of Lead, from
Teyborne to Fleetstreete, as I have said.
And also from High Bery, to the parish
of S. Giles without Creplegate, where the
Inhabitants of those parts incastellated
the same in sufficient Cisternes. Iohn

time) a house of Nuns, which house be
ing in great decay, Wil. Elsing, Mercer, in

This house was after called a Priory
or Hospital of S. Mary the Virgin
, foun
ded in the yeere 1332. by W. Elsing, for

before his day,
But ’tis not so:
for he was sought
Of one that both him
made and bought.
He remain’d
the great Lords treasure,
Who called for him
at his pleasure,
And receiv’d him.
Yet be’it said,
Earth griev’d that heaven
so soone was paid.
Here likewise lyes
inhumed in one bed,
the welbeloved wife
Of this remembred Knight:
whose soules are fled
From this dimme Vale,
to everlasting life.
Where no more change,
nor no more separation
Shall make them flye
from their blest habitation.
Grasse of levitie,
Span in brevity,
Flowers felicity,
Fire of misery,
Winds stability
Is mortality.
Their Riches were
like corne lent to the field,
What it receiv’d
it manifold did yeeld.
Their bodies have a grave
their vertues none,
But shall with time grow greene,
when they are gone.
Stone walls, brasse Towers,
decay as flowers:
One gone, their good
is, Lo, here they stood.
So transitory
is our glory.

Two lovely brethren,

Whom Cambridge, and

of which worthy paire,
The first imployed
by Sea in great affaire,
Made Heaven his Haven,
and at that Port, the other
(By land) did overtake
his elder Brother.
So now the bones
of both are laid asleepe,
These in this Church,
those in the Easterne Deepe:
Till all the dead
shall wake from Sea and Land,
Before the Iudge
of quicke and dead to stand.
Amen.
We sonne-lesse parents,
yet not childlesse left,
Bewaile (as men)
our seed untimely reft.
As Christians, we hope,
and joy, and say;
Heaven is our home,
and thither, Death the way.
By Sea or Land,

Then next is Woodstreet, by what rea
son so called, I know not; true it is,
that (of old time) according to a De
cree made in the reigne of Richard the
first
, the houses in London were builded
of stone, for defence of fire, which kind
of building was used for two hundred
yeeres or more; but of later time, for
the winning of ground, taken downe,
and houses of timber were set up in
place. It seemeth therefore, that this
street hath beene of the later building,
all of timber, (for not one house of stone
hath beene knowne there) and there
fore called Woodstreet; otherwise it
might take the name of some builder
or owner thereof.
Tho. Wood, one of the Sheriffes, in
the


the yeere 1491. dwelled there: he was
an especiall Benefactor towards the
building of S. Peters Church at Wood
street
end
, which is called Gold-smiths
row
, garnished with the likenesse of
Wood-men: his predecessors might be
the first builders, owners and namers of
this street, after their owne name.
On the East side of this street is one
of the Prison houses, pertaining to the
Sheriffes of London, and is called the
Compter in Woodstreet, which was prepa
red to be a prison-house, in the yeere
1555. and on the Eve of S. Michael the
Archangell,2 the prisoners that lay in
the Compter in Breadstreet, were remo
ved to this Compter in Woodstreet. Be
neath this Compter is Lad Lane,
Ladle lane, corruptly called Lad lane.
or La
dle Hall
; for so I find it of Record, in the
Parish of Saint Michael Woodstreet, and
beneath that is Love Lane, so called of
wantons.
By this Lane is the ancient Parish
Church of S. Albans
. One note of the
great antiquity of it, is the name: by
which it was at first dedicated to Saint
Albane
, the first Martyr of England. An
other character of the antiquity of it,
is to be seene in the manner of the tur
ning of the Arches in the windowes,
and heads of the Pillars. A third note
appeares in the Romane bricks, here and
there inlayed amongst the stones of the
building. Very probable it is, that this
Church is at least of as ancient a stan
ding, as King Adelstane the Saxon, who,
as the Tradition sayes, had his house at
the East end of this Church. This Kings
house having a doore also into Adel
street
, in this Parish, gave name, as ’tis
thought, unto the said Adel-street: which
in all Evidences to this day, is written
King-Adelstreet. One great square Tow
er of this Kings house seemes yet re
maining: to be seene at the North cor
ner of Love Lane, as you come from Al
derman-bury
: which Tower is of the ve
ry same stone and manner of building
with S. Albanes Church. This Church,
decayed with meere age, is this yeere
beginning to be taken downe, and to be
new builded.

three sonnes. She was a most faithfull and
loving wife, and a right-religious, wise,
vertuous and modest woman, and adorned
with many other such excellent and com
mendable gifts and qualities, that she is
worthy of perpetuall memory. She was of
the ancient Family of the Bamfords in

On the South side of the Church, on
the wall adjoyning to the Vestry, is an
ancient Monument, in the memory of
Christopher Hawes, Mercer and Alder
man of London, who dyed the 25. of O
ctober, 1508
. and is interred in a Vault
under the foundation of the Church.
Then is Adle street, in old Evidences
written King-Adel-street; and so cal
led from King Adel stane the Saxon.
At this present it is replenished with
faire buildings on both fides: Amongst
which, there was sometime the Pinners
Hall
: but that Company being decay
ed, it is now the Plaisterers Hall.
Not


Not farre from thence is the Brewers
Hall
, a faire house: which Company
of Brewers
was incorporated by King
Henry the sixth
, in the 16. of his reigne;
confirmed by the name of Saint Mary
and Saint Thomas the Martyr, the 19. of
Edward the fourth
.
From the West end of this Adle street,
Little Woodstreet
runneth downe to Cre
plegate
: and somewhat East (from the
Sunne Taverne, against the wall of the
Citie) is the Curriers Hall.
Now on the West side of Woodstreet
have ye Huggen lane, so called of one
Hugan, that of old time dwelled there.
He was called Hugan in the Lane, as I
have read in the 34. of Edward the first.
This Lane runneth downe by the South
side of S. Michaels Church in Wood
street
; and so growing very narrow by
meanes of late encrochments, to Guthu
rons lane
.
The Parish Church of Saint Michael
in Woodstreet
is a proper thing, and late
ly well repaired. Iohn Iue, Parson of
this Church, Iohn Forster, Goldsmith,
and Peter Fikeldon, Taylor, gave two
Messuages and Shops, with Sollars,
Cellars, and other Edifices, in the same
Parish and street, and in Ladle Lane
to the reparations of the Church,
Chancell, and other workes of charity,
the 16 of Richard the second.

by whom he had issue, foure sonnes and
one daughter, was buried the 16. day of
November, 1581
. Margaret, his se
cond wife, by whom he had issue, one son,
was buried the 14. of Ianuary, 1593.
Joane, his third wife, survived.
Robert Harvie,
A Memo
ry on the same Mo

his eldest sonne, Citizen
and Grocer of London, was buried in his
Fathers Grave the ninth of November,
1608
. out of his house in the Old Iewry,
being of the age of 47. yeeres, 5. moneths,
and 10. dayes; when he had served his
Prince, Comptroller of the Custome
house, and Warden of the Grocers. Hee
had to wife Sara Audley, of whom hee
had issue, three sonnes and three daugh
ters, &c.
There is also (but without any out
ward Monument) the head of Iames, the
fourth King of Scots of that name; slaine
at Flodden field, and buried here by this
occasion: After the Battell, the body
of the said King being found, was closed
in Lead, and conveyed from thence to
London, and so to the Monastery of
Sheyne in Surrey, where it remained for
a time, in what order I am not certaine.
But since the dissolution of that house,
in the reigne of Edward the sixth, Henry
Gray
, Duke of Suffolke, being lodged
and keeping house there; I have beene
shewed the same body, so lapped in
Lead, close to the head and body,
throwne into a waste roome amougst
the old Timber, Lead, and other rub
ble. Since the which time, workemen
there (for their foolish pleasure) hewed
off his head: And Launcelot Young, Ma
ster Glasier to Queene Elizabeth, fee
ling a sweet savour to come from
thence, and seeing the same dryed from
all moysture, and yet the forme remai
ning, with the haire of the head and
beard red; brought it to London, to his
house in Woodstreet, where (for a time)
he kept it for the sweetnesse: but in the
end, caused the Sexton of that Church
to burie it amongst other bones, taken
out of their Charnell, &c.
I reade in divers Records, of a house
in Woodstreet, then called Blacke Hall;
but no man at this day can tell thereof.
On the North side of this Saint Mi
chaels
Church
, is Maiden lane, now so
called, but (of old time) Ingenelane, or
Inglane. In this Lane the Wax-Chan
dlers
have their Common Hall, on the
South side thereof: and the Haberda
shers
have their like Hall on the North
side, at Stayning lane end. This Compa
ny of the Haberdashers
, or Hurrers, of
old time so called, were incorporated a
Brotherhood of S. Katharine,
Record in the Rolles
the 26. of
Henry the 6
. and so confirmed by Henry
the seventh
, the 17. of his reigne; the
Cappers and Hat-merchants, or Hur
rers
, being one Company of Haberda
shers
.
Downe lower in Woodstreet is Silver
street
, (I thinke, of Silver-smiths dwel
ling there) in which bee divers faire
houses.
And on the North side thereof is
Monkes-well street, so called, of a Well
at the North end thereof, where the
Abbot of Garendon had an house or
Cell, called Saint Iames in the Wall by
Creplegate, and certaine Monkes of their
house were the Chaplains there; where
fore the Well (belonging to that Cell
or Hermitage) was called Monkes-well,
and the street of the Well, Monkes-well
street
. The East side of this street, down
against London wall, and the south side
thereof to Creplegate, bee of Creplegate
Ward
, as is afore shewed.
In this street, by the corner of Monks-well street, is the Bowyers Hall.
On the said East side of Monks-well
street
,
Almes. houses in Monks-well street.
be proper Almes-houses, twelve
in number, founded by Sir Ambrose Ni
cholas
, Salter, Maior, 1575. wherein
be placed twelve poore and aged people
rent-free, having each of them 7. pence
the weeke, and once the yeere each of
them five sackes of Charcoales, and one
quarter of an hundred of Faggots, of his
gift for ever.
On the North side of the way, tur
ning towards Creplegate, and even upon,
or close to London Wall, (as it were)
are certaine new-erected Almes-hou
ses, six in number, of the cost and gift
of Mr. Robert Rogers, Leather-seller, and
very good maintenance allowed (for e
ver) to such people as are appointed to
dwell in them.
Then, in little VVoodstreet,
Almes. Chambers in little Woodstreet.
bee seven
proper Chambers in an Alley on the
West side, founded for seven poore
people, therein to dwell rent-free, by
Henry Barton, Skinner, Maior, 1516.
Thus much for the Monuments of
this Ward within the Walles.
Now without the Posteme of Creple
gate
, first is the Parish Church of Saint
Giles
, a very faire and large Church,
lately repaired, after that the same was
burned, in the yeere 1545. the 37. of
Henry the eighth
; by which mischance,
the Monuments of the dead in this
Church are very few. Notwithstanding,

And forty dozen of Wheaten Bread,
for poore Householders here.
To see these things distributed,
this Busbie put in trust
The Vicar and Church-wardens,
thinking them to be just.
God grant that poore Householders here,
may thankfull be for such;
So God will move the minds of more,
to doe for them as much:
And let this good example move
such men as God hath blest,
To doe the like, before they goe
with Busbie to their rest.
Within this Chappell, Busbies bones,
in dust a while must stay,
Till he that made them, raise them up,
to live with Christ for aye.

If Langleys life you list to know,
A comely Monumēt in the wall beneath the Quire

Of faith and hope I will not speake,
his workes shall shew them true:
Who whilst he liv’d, with counsell grave,
the better sort did guide;
A stay to weake, a staffe to poore,
without back-bite or pride:
And when he dyed, he gave his Mite,
all that did him befall,
For ever (once a yeere) to cloath
S. Giles his poore withall.
All Saints he pointed for the day,
Gownes twenty ready made,
with twenty Shirts, and twenty Smocks,
as they may best be had.
A Sermon eke he hath ordain’d,
that God may have his praise,
And other might be won thereby,
to follow Langleys wayes.
On Vicar and Church-wardens then,
his trust he hath repos’d,
As they will answer him one day,
when all shall be disclos’d.
Thus being dead, yet still he lives,
lives, never for to dye,
In Heavens blisse, in Worlds fame;
and so I trust shall I.

The

The circuit of the Parish of S.
Giles without Creplegate.
THe Parishioners, in their Per
ambulation, first strike downe
the Alley (which hath some
time beene part of their Church-yard)
close by S. Giles his Well, and crossing
the Towne-ditch, keepe along by the
Citie Wall, almost to Aldersgate, where
they should crosse the Ditch againe,
and take in certaine Garden-houses,
which stand neere the Ditch, and so
comming downe a little Garden Alley,
(through which sometime hath beene a
way into Aldersgate street) returne again
by S. Giles his Well, the same way they
went in.
Then walking up the West side of
Red-crosse street, and the South side of
Barbican, till they come toward the far
ther end thereof, over against the signe
of the Bores head, they set up their marks
upon a great Post (as it seemeth set there
for the same purpose) where they
should crosse over to the North side,
right over against the said bound, tho
row certaine Garden Alleys, lying on
the West side of Willoughby House: but
by reason of some contention, that
course is of late denyed them, so that
they passe through Barbican, and turne
up Goswell street, (being part of S. But
tolphs
Parish) untill they come a little
beyond the Barres, where they enter
their owne bounds againe, and setting
up their markes, passe along the right
side of the Kings high way, leading to
Islington, and leaving the Mount Mill
upon their right hand, they proceed on,
till they come within three roddes of a
little Bridge, (at the lower end of the
Close next unto Islington, over which
lyeth a foot-path toward Newington
Greene,)
where they digge a way over
the Ditch, and so keepe upon the top
of the Ditch banke, all the breadth of
the lower end of the said Close; where
they turne againe South-east, and ta
king in all the Lay-stalles, and low
grounds, where bricke hath been made,
strike over betweene those low grounds
and the Brick-hils, that now are adjoy
ning to the foot-path, leading from the
Pest-house to Islington, which they leave
on the left side; in the South end of
which Brick-hill, there is a stone set,
now almost digged downe: From the
which stone, they come straight South,
till they come over a Bridge, which is
laid purposely for them, and after re
moved; which as soone as they have
past, they strike downe, by the said
Ditch side Eastward, to the farthest
Conduit head, where they give the
Children Poynts.
From whence they keepe a straight
course into the Kings high way, to Dame
Anne de Clare
, upon the right side of
which way they keepe, till they come
to the Butts, where a planck is purpose
ly laid for them, over which they passe
into Holywell Close, and so keepe dire
ctly to the farthest of the sixe Milles,
next unto Holywell, which they leave on
their left hand, and so passing over the
high way, keepe a straight course over
the Walks, to the farthest Wall, South
of the middle Walke, (leaving the But
chers Close, and the lower Gardens,
some three Roddes on the left hand)
in the which VVall there is a marke
or Bound: From thence (not entring
the lowest Walke at all) they turne full
West, over the high way leading from
Moregate, and comming into little More
fields
, (as we call it) they keepe close to
the Pales and Tentors (for they have
not passing eight or ten foot of ground
from the Pales) till they come to the
Posterne, where they set up their mark;
and so through the Posterne they make
their returne, &c.
