Sugarloaf Alley
Sugarloaf Alley ran north-south from Leadenhall Street to Fenchurch
Street, on the west side of Bricklayers’ Hall. Stow indicates that
it was called
Sprinckle alliebut had been renamed Sugarloaf Alley after a shop sign (
now named Sugar-loafe Alley, of the like signe[Stow; BHO]. Sugar was usually sold in solid loaves.
Sugarloaf Alley is not visible on the Agas map. The alley, which
should not be confused with Sugarloaf Court in Cripplegate Ward, was built
over in 1734 (Harben; BHO).

Locations

Leadenhall Street
Leadenhall Street ran east-west from Cornhill Street to Aldgate Street. All three form part of the same road from Aldgate to Cheapside (Weinreb and Hibbert 462). The street acquired its name from Leadenhall, a onetime house and later a market. The building was reportedly famous for having a leaden roof (Bebbington 197).Leadenhall Street is mentioned in the following documents:
-
Fenchurch Street
Fenchurch Street (often called Fennieabout) ran east-west from the pump on Aldgate High Street to Gracechurch Street in Langbourne Ward, crossing Mark Lane, Mincing Lane, and Rodd Lane along the way. Fenchurch Street was home to several famous landmarks, including the King’s Head Tavern, where the then-Princess Elizabeth is said to have partaken inpork and peas
after her sister, Mary I, released her from the Tower of London in May of 1554 (Weinreb, Hibbert, Keay, and Keay 288). Fenchurch Street was on the royal processional route through the city, toured by monarchs on the day before their coronations.Fenchurch Street is mentioned in the following documents:
-
Bricklayers’ Hall
The Bricklayers’ Hall was east of Billiter Lane and stood on the south side of the street running west from the water pump near Aldgate. This street was named Leadenhall Street in the seventeenth century but was considered part of Aldgate Street when Stow was writing. Stow mentions the hall only in passing in his survey, so he neglects the hall’s appearance and history (Stow). The hall was incorporated in 1568 but by the eighteenth century the Bricklayers had abandoned it. Thereafter, it was used as a synagogue by Dutch Jews (Harben).Bricklayers’ Hall is mentioned in the following documents:
-
Sugarloaf Court is mentioned in the following documents:
-
Cripplegate Ward
MoEML is aware that the ward boundaries are inaccurate for a number of wards. We are working on redrawing the boundaries. This page offers a diplomatic transcription of the opening section of John Stow’s description of this ward from his Survey of London.Cripplegate Ward is mentioned in the following documents:
