THe next adjoyning
to Coleman streete
Ward, on the West
side thereof, is Bas-
sings Hall Ward, a
small thing, and
consisteth of one
streete, called Bas-
sings Hall streete, of Bassings Hall, the
most principall house, whereof the
Ward taketh name. It beginneth in the
South, by the late spoken Market house,
called the Bay Hall, which is the last of
Coleman streete Ward. This streete run-
neth from thence North downe to Lon-
don Wall, and some little distance both
East and West, against the said Hall:
And this is the bounds of Bassings Hall
Ward.

in the yeere 1197. King
Richard the first, at the instance of Hu-

sticiar of England, ordained, That the
woollen clothes in every part of this
Realme, should be in breadth two yards
within the Lists, and as good in the
middest as in the sides, &c. King Henry

London, that they should not bee vexed

On the VVest side,
almost at the
South end thereof, is Bakewell Hall, cor-
ruptly called Blackwell Hall. Concer-
ning the originall whereof, I have heard
divers opinions, which I over-passe as
fables, without colour of truth: for
though the same seemed a Building of
great antiquity, yet (in mine opinion)
the foundation thereof was first laid
since the Conquest of William, Duke of
Normandy: for the same was builded
upon Vaults of stone, which stone was
brought from Cane in Normandy. The
like of that of Pauls Church, builded by
Mauritius and his successors, Bishops of
London. But that this house hath beene
a Temple, or Iewish Synagogue (as
some have fantasied) I allow not, seeing
that it had no such forme of roundnesse,
or other likenesse. Neither had it the
forme of a Church, for the assembly of
Christians, which are builded East and
West: but contrariwise, the same was
builded North and South, and in forme
of a Noble mans house: and therefore
the best opinion (in my judgement) is,
that it was (of old time) belonging to
the Family of the Bassings, which was in
this Realme a name of great antiquity
and renowne, and that it bare also the
name of that Family, and was called
therfore Bassings Haugh, or Hall. Where-
unto I am the rather induced, for that
the Armes of that Family were (of old
time) so abundantly placed in sundry
parts of that house,
worke, but more especially on the wals
of the Hall, which carried a continuall
painting of them on every side so close
together, as one Escocheon could bee
placed by another, which I my selfe
have often seene and noted, before the
old Building was taken downe. These
Arms were a Gerond of twelve points,
Gold and Azure.

How Bas-

VVard taketh the name; as Coleman

And of old time the most Noble per-
sons that inhabited this City, were ap-
pointed to bee principall Magistrates
thereas was Godfrey de Magun (or Mag-
navilla) Portgrave or Sheriffe, in the
reigne of William the Conquerour, and
of William Rufus; Hugh de Buch, in the
reigne of Henry the first; Aubery de Vere,
Earle of Oxford. After him, Gilbert Bec-
ket, in the reigne of King Stephen. After
that, Godfrey de Magnavilla, the sonne
of William, the sonne of Godfrey de Mag-
navilla, Earles of Essex, were Port-
graves or Sheriffes of London and Mid-
dlesex. In the reign of Henry the second,
Peter Fitzwalter: after him, Iohn Fitzni-
gel, &c. So likewise in the reigne of
King Iohn, the 16. of his reigne, a time
of great troubles, in the yeere 1214. Sa-
lomon Bassing,
of this Realme, as may bee supposed,
were Sheriffes; and that the said Salo-
mon Bassing was Maior in the yeer 1216.
which was the first of Henry the third.
Also Adam Bassing, son to Salomon (as it
seemeth) was one of the Sheriffes, in the
yeere 1243. the 28. of Henry the third.

third, and that in the 20. of Richard the
second, the said King, for the summe of
fifty pounds, which the Maior and the
Cōmonalty had payed into the Hana-

him, to Iohn Frosh, William Parker, and
Stephen Spilman (Citizens and Mercers)

Bakewell Hall, and one Garden, with the
appurtenances, in the Parish of St. Mi-

This Bakewell Hall thus established,
hath beene long since imployed, as a
weekly Market place for all sorts of

brought from all parts of this Realme
there to bee sold. In the 21. of Richard

and in the 22. Drew Barringtine being
Maior, it was decreed, that no Forraine
or Stranger should sell any woollen
cloth, but in the Bakewell Hall, upon

London Wall (street)
London Wall was a long street running along the inside of the northern part of the City Wall. It ran east-west from the north end of Broad Street to Cripplegate (Prockter and Taylor 43). The modern London Wall street is a major traffic thoroughfare now. It follows roughly the route of the former wall, from Old Broad Street to the Museum of London (whose address is 150 London Wall).London Wall (street) is mentioned in the following documents:

St. Paul’s Cathedral
St. Paul’s Cathedral was—and remains—an important church in London. In 962, while London was occupied by the Danes, St. Paul’s monastery was burnt and raised anew. The church survived the Norman conquest of 1066, but in 1087 it was burnt again. An ambitious Bishop named Maurice took the opportunity to build a new St. Paul’s, even petitioning the king to offer a piece of land belonging to one of his castles (Times 115). The building Maurice initiated would become the cathedral of St. Paul’s which survived until the Great Fire of London.St. Paul’s Cathedral is mentioned in the following documents:

Former Student Contributors
We’d also like to acknowledge students who contributed to MoEML’s intranet predecessor at the University of Windsor between 1999 and 2003. When we redeveloped MoEML for the Internet in 2006, we were not able to include all of the student projects that had been written for courses in Shakespeare, Renaissance Drama, and/or Writing Hypertext. Nonetheless, these students contributed materially to the conceptual development of the project.
