within the wall,
is called Tower-street
Ward and exten-
deth along the Ri-
ver of Thames, from
the said Tower in the East, almost
to Belingsgate in the VVest: one halfe of
the Tower, the ditch on the West side,
and Bulwarkes adjoyning, doe stand
within that part, where the wall of the
Citie (of old time) went straight from
the Posterne gate South to the River of
Thames, before that the Tower was
builded. From and without the Tower
ditch west and by north, is the said
Tower Hill,
Tower hill.
sometime a large plot of
ground, now greatly streightned by in-
croachments (unlawfully made and suf-
fered) for Gardens and houses, some on
the banke of the Tower-ditch, whereby
the ditch is marred, and more neere un-
to the wall of the Citie from the Po-
sterne north, till over against the princi-
pall fore-gate of the Lord Lumleyes
house, &c. but the Tower ward goeth
no further that way.
Vpon this Hill is alwaies readily pre-
pared (at the charges of the Citie) a
large Scaffold and Gallowes of timber,
for the execution of such Traitors or
Transgressors, as are delivered out of
the Tower, or otherwise to the Sheriffes
of London by writ, there to be executed.
I read, that in the fifth of King Edward
the fourth, a Scaffold and Gallowes
were there set up by other the Kings Of-
ficers, and not of the Cities charges;
whereupon the Maior and his Brethren
complained, but were answered by the
King, that the Tower hill was of the li-
berty of the Citie; and whatsoever was
done in that point, was not in deroga-
tion of the Cities liberties, and there-
fore commanded Proclamation to bee
made, aswell within the Citie as in
the Suburbs, as followeth:
Forasmuch as the seventh day of this pre-
sent moneth of November, Gallowes were
erect and set up besides our Tower of Lon-
don, within the liberties and franchises of
our Citie of London, in derogation and pre-
judice of the liberties and franchises of this
Citie: The King our Soveraigne Lord
would have it be certainely understood, that
the erection and setting up of the said Gal-
lowes was not done by his commandement:
wherefore, the King our Soveraigne Lord
willeth, that the erection and setting up of
the said Gallowes, be not any president, or
example thereby hereafter to be taken, in
hurt, prejudice or derogation of the franchi-
ses, liberties and priviledges of the Citie,
which he at all times hath had, and hath in
his benevolence, tender favour, and good
grace, &c.
Apud Westminst. nono die Novembris,
Anno regni nostri quinto.
Many Controversies have beene in
times past, betwixt the Lord Maior and
Citizens of London, on th’one party, and
the Lieutenant of the Tower of London
on th’other party, touching their liber-
ties: The Lieutenant usurping divers
priviledges which were against the
Lawes of the Realme: as for example:
If A. B. were indebted to C. D. dwel-
ling in the precinct of the Tower, and
would suffer himselfe to be arrested and
prosecuted by the said C. D. in the
Court held within the Tower, and there
to have judgement upon the said debt
obtained against him: after which
judgement obtained, a Precept was

awarded under the seale of office of the
Lieutenant, redirected unto the Porter
of the Tower or to his deputy, to take
A. B. in execution for the same debt.
And after that A. B. is so taken in exe-
cution, there is returne made of the exe-
cution of the said Precept; and there-
upon the Lieutenant not onely appoin-
teth about a dozen or more Keepers to
the said A. B. and such as the said A. B.
will nominate;
This pre-
tended Priviledge is directly against the Lawes of the Realm, as her-
under is resolved by the Iudges.
but also suffereth the
said A. B. to goe at liberty, giving unto
him a Protection under the seale of his
Office: And thereby commandeth all
Officers in any wise to forbeare to arrest
or trouble the said A. B. for the space of
one whole yeere, beeing his prisoner.
Then if it shall happen that the said A.
B. shall be arrested, being in the custo-
dy of any of his Keepers, and having the
said Protection to shew; if immediate-
ly upon the shewing of the same, he bee
not set at liberty againe, In such case,
the Lieutenant pretendeth that he hath
power to arrest the body of any person,
dwelling in such Citie or Countie,
wherein the said A. B. was so arrested
and troubled, if any such person can bee
found within the liberties of the Tower,
and the body of the same person to de-
taine in safe custody, untill such time as
the said A. B. shall be enlarged.
By which meanes the execution of
the Lawes of the Realme is hindred,
and the Subjects wronged.

the Lieutenant of the Tower,
for the taking of one in executi-
on, with the returne of the
same Precept.

1585. Sir Owen Hopton, Knight, Lieute-
nant of the Tower of London, by colour
of his office, pretending title to a Gar-
den-plot neere the Tower, did cause his
servants violently to take possession ther-
of, and to bring those persons before him
that kept the possession, whom he im-
prisoned in the Tower. Whereupon, a
Writ of Habeas Corpus was sued forth of
the Kings Bench for the removing of the
body of Robert Shapeley, one of the pri-
soners, which Writ was brought and
delivered unto the Lieutenant by Robert
Smith, then Solicitor of the City of Lon-
don, but the Lieutenant would not re-
ceive nor obey the Writ, but would
have compelled the said Robert Smith to
carry it backe againe with him: which
hee refusing, the Lieutenant put the
Writ into his pocket, and abused and
imprisoned also the said Robert Smith in
the Tower: For redresse of which
wrongs, and of many others, there was
complaint made to the Lords of the Pri-
vie Councell, who referred the hearing
of those controversies, and the exami-
nation of the rights and priviledges
which the Lieutenant pretended to be-
long unto his Office, to the Lords chiefe
Iustices and to the Master of the Rolles,
who were to certifie their opinions
therof in writing, as by the letters of the
Lords of the Councell in that behalfe
sent and directed unto them, of the te-
nor following, appeareth.
The Councels letters to the
Lords chiefe Iustices, and to
the Master of the Rolles.
AFter our very hearty Commendati-
ons, &c. There hath been complaint
made unto us in the behalfe of the
Lord Maior and Citizens of London, a-
gainst Sir Owen Hopton, Knight, Lieu-
tenant of the Tower, whom they charge with
some disordered dealing by him used towards
one Robert Smith, a Soliciter for the City,
sent lately unto him with a Writ of Habeas
Corpus, out of the Court of her Majesties
Bench, for the removing of the body of one
Robert Shapeley, a servant to one Willi-
am Wikins a Citizen, imprisoned by the
Lieutenant upon some pretended quarrell of
priviledge; the manner whereof shall best
appeare unto you by the severall complaints
and articles herein inclosed, exhibited unto
us by the said Smith and VVikins.
And forasmuch as the Maior, Aldermen
and Citizens of London, have heretofore of-
tentimes found themselves grieved, with
sundry actions of unkind and violent dea-
lings, offered by the said Lieutenant and
his Officers as they have enformed, to the
breach of their Charters and liberties, wher-
by there is growne some division and dissen-
tion betweene them (which we desire by all
good meanes to have removed;) and whereas▪
the Lieutenant seemeth to warrant his do-
ings by ancient priviledges and customes of
the Tower, whereunto the Citizens on their
parts, upon opinion of the validities of
their Charters, refuse to yeeld: VVee consi-
dering what inconvenience may ensue of the
private dissention betweene them, have
thought good to require you, calling Master
Lieutenant before you, and the parties,
whose complaints are herewith sent unto
you; with such proofes and witnesse as may
be produced, effectually to examine the mat-
ters thereby informed against him: and that
you also take knowledge of such other com-
plaints and controversies, as the L. Maior

and the Recorder of London shall deli-
ver unto you against the Lieutenant of the
Tower concerning their former debates and
strifes, for matter of liberties, prescriptions
and customes, and the like on the behalfe of
the Lieutenant against them, praying you
to take some paines to beare the matters at
large on both sides; and to see upon what
priviledges, customes, and prescriptions,
their severall claims are grounded and pre-
tended: as also to consider of their strength
and validity in Law, wherein after you shal
have spent some time, and heard and under-
stood the matters at large, wee require you
then to make report unto us what you shall
have found on both sides, as well touching
the complains of Smith and Wikins, as
of the Lord Maior and Citizens, with your
opinions of their said complaints and con-
troversies, and what course were fittest to be
taken betweene them, which we pray you to
doe with as convenient speed as you may:
And so bid you heartily farewell.

Directed to the Lords chiefe Iusices,
and to the Master of the Rolles.
Vpon the receit of which letters, the
said Lords chiefe Iustices, and Master
of the Rolles, did at large heare the al-
legations and proofes of both parties,
and did accordingly certifie their opini-
ons thereof to the Lords of the Privie
Councell in manner following:
The Certificat, touching as well the Ar-
ticles and Complaints made to your Ho-
nours, by Robert Smith and VVilliam
VVikins, against Sir Owen Hopton,
Knight, Lieutenant of the Tower, as
the controversies between the Ma-
ior and Citizens of London
and the said Lieutenaut.
FIrst, upon examination of the mat-
ter, touching the said Smith and
VVikins, mentioned in your Ho-
nours letters, it appeareth unto us, that
(some controversie being betweene the
Maior and Citizens, and the said Lieu-
tenant, touching a Garden-plot neere
the said Tower) one Ralph Gasken, ser-
vant to the said Lieutenant, violently
did draw forth of the said Garden, one
Shapeley, servant to the said VVikins, then
labouring there for his said Master, in
such violent manner, as thereby blood
was drawne of him in severall places,
and carried him to the Tower, and there
kept him in prison eight dayes; and that
one Shawe, another of the Lieutenants
servants, was present with the said Gas-
ken ayding him, but that he did not hurt
the said Shapeley; which Gasken and
Shawe did detaine some of the apparell
of the said Shapeley, and yet doe for any
thing knowene to us.
And that likewise one Payne was ta-
ken forth of the said Garden, and carri-
ed to the Tower, and there imprisoned
three dayes, and then delivered upon
bond, to render his body to the Tower
when he should be required, and that
Payne hath left a pawne of the value of
tenne shillings for his meat and drinke.
And that Her Majesties VVrit of
Habeas Corpus for the body of Shape-
ley was sued forth of her Bench, directed
to the Lieutenant, which carried and
delivered to him by the said Smith, who
prayed the said Lieutenant to make al-
lowance thereof, and paid him the Fee
due therefore. But forthwith he would
have forced the said Smith to have recei-
ved the money againe and the VVrit:
which Smith refused to doe, praying
him not to be offended for bringing of
her Majesties Processe.
And thereupon Master Lieutenant
said he would put his VVrit in his poc-
ket, as he had done many, and there-
with rubbed Smith on the cheekes, and
threatned to imprison him, if he would
not carry backe the VVrit againe and
the money: whereupon the said Lieu-
tenant imprisoned Smith, and detained
him about three houres, untill upon a
Bill of his hand to returne to prison
when the Lieutenant should send for
him, he was delivered; which matter
the Lieutenant confesseth to be true.
And touching such liberties as Ma-
ster Lieutenant claimeth to have beene
used

used for the Officers and Attendants in
the Tower, as not to be arrested by any
Action in the Citie of London, and
Protections to be granted to them by
Master Lieutenant, and not obeying of
VVrits of Habeas Corpus, we thinke such
persons as are daily attendant in the
Tower, serving her Majesty there, are
to be priviledged, and not to be arrested
upon any plaint in London. But for
VVrits of execution, or Capias ut liga-
tum, and such like, we thinke they ought
to have no priviledge.
Moreover, touching Protections gran-
ted by Master Lieutenant, for such as be
condemned in any action in the Court
kept in the Tower, to goe at large, and
not to be arrested by any Processe out
of the Queenes high Courts, or else-
where, or any other Protection to that
effect, for any priviledged person, we
thinke the same against Her Majesties
Lawes and dignity.
Item, That Matter Lieutenant ought
to returne every Habeas Corpus, out of
any Court at Westminst. so as the Justi-
ces before whom it shall bee returned,
(as the cause shall require) may either
remand it with the body, or retaine the
matter before them, and deliver the bo-
dy, as Justice shall require.
As touching the jurisdiction of the
Court in the Tower, and the contro-
versies for certaine liberties upon the
Tower-hill, and the soile there, and di-
vers places about the Tower, we are not
yet fully resolved, but desire your Lord-
ships to have some further time to con-
sider thereupon: for, that there be ma-
ny matters alleaged, and to be shewed
in writing for the same, as we are infor-
med, which we have not yet seene.
Item, The said Lieutenant doth claime
a liberty, that if any person priviledged
in the Tower be arrested in London, that
he may take the body of any Citizen
that shall come within the liberties of
the Tower, and keepe his body there,
untill the other be delivered: which we
thinke altogether against the Lawes of
this Realme.

After the Lords of the Privie Coun-
cell had received the same Certificat,
they did thereupon make this finall Or-
der and Decree following, viz.
At Non such, the third day
of October. 1585.
Present,
  • Lord Treasurer.
  • Lord Admirall.
  • Lord Chamberlaine.
  • Master Treasurer.
  • Master Secretary.
WHereas sundry variances
& contentions have here-
tofore arisen, and have of
late yeeres depended, betwixt the Lord
Maior and Communalty of the City of
London, on the one part; and the Lieu-
tenant of Her Majesties Tower of Lon-
don, on the other part, touching matters
of liberties, prescriptions, customes, and
other claimes and pretences: by reason
wherof, and for lack of order for stay of
those variances and contentions, divers
tumults have heretofore growne, and
Her Majesties Peace hath many times
beene in hazard to be dangerously bro-
ken; whereupon, severall complaints
have beene heretofore exhibited to the
Lords and others of Her Majesties most
Honourable Privie Councell, by the
Lord Maior and Communalty afore-
said, against the said Lieutenant, for di-
vers injuries alleaged to bee offered on
his part to the Citizens of London, with-
out order of Law or equity: After con-
sideration had of which severall com-
plaints, it pleased their Lordships (ha-
ving care to procure an end of those
controversies, for avoiding of inconve-
niences that might ensue) by their Ho-
nourable letters to give order to Sir
Christopher Wray, Knight, Lord chiefe
Justice of England; Sir Edmond Ander-
son, Knight, Lord chiefe Justice of the
Common Pleas; and to Sir Gilbert Ger-
rard, Knight, Master of the Rolles, that
they (calling the said Lieutenant and
the parties complainants before them)
should effectually heare and examine
the controversies (on both sides,) and
certifie their Lordships what they
should finde, together with their opi-
nions

touching the same, who having
called the parties accordingly before
them, and advisedly and with good de-
liberation sundry times heard their Al-
legations and answers, as well by writing
as by word, with counsell learned on all
parts, have signified their opinions of
the said controversies in writing, as
hereafter followeth:
First, touching such liberties as M.
Lieutenant claimeth to have beene used
for the Officers and Attendants in the
Tower, as not to be arrested by any acti-
on in the City of London, and prote-
ctions to be granted to them, by Master
Lieutenant, and not obeying of writs
ofGap in transcription. Reason: Omitted from the original text due to a printing or typesetting error.[…] we thinke such persons as bee
dayly attendant in the Tower serving
her Majestie there, are to be priviledged
and not to be arrested upon any plaint in
London, but for writs of Executions, or Gap in transcription. Reason: Omitted from the original text due to a printing or typesetting error.[…] and such like, wee
thinke they ought to have no privi-
ledge.
Secondly, concerning protections
granted by Master Lieutenant for such
as bee condemned in any action in the
Court, kept in the Tower, to goe at
large, and not to be arrested by any Pro-
cesse out of the Queenes high Courts,
or elsewhere, or any other protection to
that effect for any priviledged person,
we thinke the same against her Majesties
lawes and dignitie.
Thirdly, that M. Lieutenant ought
to returne every Habeas Corpus out of a-
ny Court at Westminster, so as the Iusti-
ces before whom it shall be returned (as
the cause shall require) may either re-
mand it with the body, or retaine the
matter before them, and deliver the bo-
dy as Iustice shall require.
Lastly, whereas the Lieutenant doth
also claime a liberty, that if any person
priviledged in the Tower be arrested in
London, hee may take the body of any
Citizen that shall come within the li-
berties of the Tower, and keepe his bo-
dy there untill the other bee delivered,
we thinke the same to bee altogether a-
gainst the lawes of the Realme.
The Lords therefore of her Majesties
said Privie Councell, upon grave and
deliberate considerations had of the cer-
tificate and opinions of the said Lords
chiefe Iustices and Master of the Rolles,
and to the end occasions of contenti-
on, trouble, and disorder, and the dan-
ger of breach of her Majesties peace,
which have heretofore of late yeeres a-
risen and growne upon the controversies
aforesaid, may from henceforth cease,
and bee althougher removed and taken
away;
It was this day by their Lordships or-
dered and decreed, betwixt the Lord
Maior, Communalty and Citizens of
London, and their successors, and the
Lieutenant of her Highnesse said Tower
of London, and all other Lieutenants and
Officers of the Tower at any time here-
after to succeed: That the matters, points
and articles contained in the Certificate
of the said Iustices and Master of the
Rolles before mentioned, wherein their
resolutions, opinions and determinati-
ons be set downe, declared and signifi-
ed, shall at all times from henceforth
stand and remaine for rules and resoluti-
ons and finall determination and decisi-
on: for so much and so many of the
points of controversies as are contained
in the said Certificate (whereof they
have delivered their opinions) to be for
ever hereafter duely observed and kept,
and that nothing bee hereafter at any
time done, or attempted on either part,
to the violating or interrupting of the
same.

the backe gate, sometime belonging to
Sir Francis Walsingham, but now to Sir

is faithfully divided among them.
Now for the limits and bounds of
the Parish, they go on from the Church
West, and turning downe on the East
side of Mart-lane, crosse the way over
to Sir Henry Bakers house, and so go up
on the West side, till turning into Hart-
street, they goe on into Sydon-lane, so
farre as their marke standeth, on the
house of Sir Nicholas Salter, joyning to
theirs of Barking Parish. Then they goe
over on the West side, and so passe
downe Crochet Friers, to Tower-hill,
to the further part of the Lady Lumleys
garden wall, and the backe gate of the
foresaid Sir Nicholas, where turning
backe to Porters house, and going on
Northward, they goe into an Alley,
which guideth them to the North end
of Master Covels garden, and there they
fix their marke by theirs of Barking, on
London Wall.
So returning againe, they goe up
towards Aldgate on the East side, so far
as directly against the signe of the
Cocke, returning backe on the West
side to the Pumpe in Crochet Friers, and
then to the place where they began.
Here I was favoured by Master Iohn
Simpson, Parson of S. Olaves, and the
friendly Officers there.
Then have ye out of Tower street also
on the North side,
Mart-lane, of a Mart kept about Blanch Chappelton, or Appleton.
one other lane, called
Mart-Lane, which runneth up towards
the North, and is for the most part of
this Tower-street Ward; which lane is
about the third quarter thereof, divided
from Aldgate Ward, by a chaine to bee
drawne thwart the said lane, above the
West end of Hart-street. Cokedon-lane,
sometime at the South-west end of
Mart-lane, I read of.
A third lane out of Tower-street on the
North side,
Mincheon lane.
is called Mincheon-lane, so
called of Tenements there, sometime
pertaining to the Minchuns or Nunnes
of S. Helens in Bishopsgate-street: This
Lane is all of the said Ward, except
the corner house towards Fen-Church-street.
In this lane of old time dwelled di-
vers strangers borne, of Genoa and those
parts; these were commonly called
Galley-men,
Galley-men dwel-
led there.
as men that came up in the
Galleys, brought up Wines and other
Merchandises, which they landed in
Thames street, at a place called Galley
Key: they had a certaine coyne of siluer
amongst themselves, which were halfe
pence of Genoa, and were called Galley
halfe-pence. These halfe-pence were
forbidden in the 13. yeere of King Hen-
ry the 4. and againe by Parliament in
the 4. of Henry the 5. it was enacted,
that if any person bring into this Realm
Galley halfepence, Suskins, or Dodkins,
he should be punished as a Thiefe, and
he that taketh or payeth such money,
shall lose an hundred shillings, whereof
the King shall have the one halfe, and
he that will sue, the other halfe: not-
withstanding in my youth I have seene
them passe currant, but with some diffi-
culty, for that the English halfe-pence
were then (though not so broad) some-
what thicker and stronger.
The Cloth-workers Hall is in this
Lane.
Cloth. workers Hall.
Then at the West end of Tower-street,
have ye a little turning towards
the North,
Gristes house.
to a faire house, sometime
belonging to one named Griste, for hee
dwelled there in the yeere 1449. And
Iack Cade, Captaine of the Rebels in
Kent, being by him in this his house fea-
sted, when he had dined, like an unkind
guest, robbed him of all that was there
to be found worth the carriage.
Next to this is another faire house,
sometime builded by Angell Dunne,
Grocer,
Iohn Champneis, Alderman blind.
Alderman of London; since pos-
sessed by Sir Iohn Champneies, Alder-
man and Maior of London. He builded
in this house an high Tower of Bricke,
the first that ever I heard of in any pri-
vate mans house, to overlooke his neigh-
bours in this Citie. But this delight of
his eye was punished with blindnesse
some yeeres before his death. Since
that time, Sir Percevall Hart, a jolly
Courtier, and Knight Harbenger to the
Queene, was lodged there, &c.
From this house somewhat West, is
the Parish Church and Parsonage house
of Saint Margaret Pattens, to the which
Church and house on the North side,
and as farre over against on the South,
stretcheth the farthest West part of this
Ward. And therefore, to begin againe
at the East end of Tower-street; on the
South side have ye Beare-lane, wherein
are many faire houses, and runneth
downe to Thames-street. The next is

since and of later time, named, Water-lane,
because it runneth downe to the
Water-gate by the Custome House in
Thames-street:
Harpe-lane.
then is there Hart-lane
for Harp-lane, which likewise runneth
downe into Thames-street.
In this Hart-lane is the Bakers Hall,
sometime the dwelling house of Iohn
Chichley,
Bakers Hall.
Chamberlaine of London, who
was son to William Chichley, Alderman
of London, brother to William Chichley,
Archdeacon of Canturbury, Nephew to
Robert Chichley, Maior of London, and to
Henry Chichley Archbishop of Cantur-
bury.
This Iohn Chichley (saith our Leyland)
had foure and twenty children. Sir Tho.
Kitrioll of Kent, after he had been long
prisoner in France, married Elizabeth,
one of the Daughters of this Chichley, by
whom he had this Chichleyes house.
This Elizabeth was secondly married
to Sir Ralfe Ashton, Knight Marshall:
and thirdly, to Sir Iohn Bourchier, Vncle

is a faire and large Church of an ancient

ly Arch, the other, at the other end in
like manner, and a comely figure of a
Lady betweene them, who was wife to
them both. By the one standeth a Ta-
ble, with this inscription:
Here lyeth Henry Heardsons corps,
within this Tombe of stone:
His soule (through faith in Christs death,)
to God in Heaven is gone.
VVhiles that he lived an Alderman,
and Skinner was his state:
To Vertue bare hee all his love,
To vice hee bare his hate.
His Almes that weekely he bestowed,
within this Parish here,
May witnesse to the poores releefe,
what good-will hee did beare.
Hee had to wife one Barbara,
which made this Tombe you see:
By whom he had of issue store,
eight Sonnes and Daughters three.

By the other standeth the like Table,
thus inscribed:
The corps of Richard Champion, Knight,
Maior and Draper, herein doth rest:
Whose soule by most assured hope,
with Christ in heaven is blest.
His life was such, and so imployed,
to right from wrong; that hee
Whom God did so direct in life,
must needs with comfort dye:
Both rich and poore did like him well,
and yet doe praise his name:
Though he behinde him left no child,
which might declare the same.
His weekely almes that is bestowed,
within this Parish here:
Doth witnesse to the poores comfort,
the good will he did beare.

FINIS.
Now, in regard that this Parish of S.
Dunstane is the last (in our account) of
Tower-street Ward, we are to speake of
Gods blessings there to the poore, which
I finde to be seven shillings three pence
every Sunday through the yeere, given
in ready money, beside bread and other
gifts, according to the wils and disposi-
tions of Sir Richard Champion, and Ma-
ster Alderman Heardson, with Coales
given beside at certaine times. More, I
finde, that one man hath given yeerely
for ever, an whole Oxe to be distributed
by a quarter thereof quarterly, and a
pecke of Oate-meale there withall to the
poore. But yet so discreetly ordered,
that they that have the quarter of Beese
and pecke of Oate-meale at one quarter,
must stay till other poore bee so served,
and that it comes to their turne againe.
Other charities there are which came
in gifts of ready money, and are accor-
dingly truly distributed.
In the perambulation of this Parish,
they goe first so farre North from the
Church, as to the house next William
Offington, and thence returning, walke
down on the North side of Tower-street,
so farre as Mincheon-lane, and to the
house of Master Dumbelowe, next to
Clothworkers Hall, where they returne
againe, and so goe on to the signe of the
Dolphine in Tower-street, being a Ta-
verne. There they crosse the way, and
goe downe the West side onely of Wa-
ter-lane, and then walke along Thames-street,
leaving the Custome house, pas-
sing on to Smarts-key; whence returning
backe into the Crosse-lane, so farre as
Sir Cuthbert Buckles house, now in the
custody of Sir Iohn Lemnian, Knight,
and Lord Maior of London, they goe
home to the place where they began.
Here I was favoured by Master Iohn
Childerlay, Doctor of Divinity, my wor-
thy good friend, and his diligent Offi-
cers.
Now as concerning the two Church-lanes,
they meeting on the South side
of this Church and Church-yard, doe
joyne in one: and running downe to the
Thames-street, the same is called Saint
Dunstans Hill: at the lower end where-
of the said Thames-street (toward the
West, on both sides almost to Belins-gate
but towards the East up to the VVater-gate,
by the Bulwarke of the Tower) is
all of Tower-street VVard. In this street
on the Thames side, are divers large lan-
ding places, called VVharffes, or Keys,
for Cranage up of VVares and Mer-
chandise, as also for shipping of Wares
from thence to be transported.
These Wharffes and Keys common-
ly beare the names of their owners, and
are therefore changeable. I read, in the
26. of Henry the sixth, that in the Parish
of Saint Dunstane in the East, a tene-
ment called Passekes Wharffe,
Passekes VVharffe, and Hor-
ners Key.
and ano-
ther called Horners Key in Thames-street,
were granted to William Harindon Es-
quire. I read also, that in the sixth of
Richard the second, Iohn Churchman Gro-
cer, for the quiet of Merchants, did new-
ly build a certaine house upon the Key,
called Wool-wharffe,
Wool-wharffe by Custo-
mers Key.
in the Tower-street
Ward, in the Parish of Alhallowes Bar-
king, betwixt the tenement of Paul Sa-
lisbury, on the East part, and the Lane

house, with easements there for the
Ballances and Weights, and a counting
place for the Customer, Controwlers,
Clerkes and other Officers of the said
Tronage, together with ingresse and re-
gresse to and from the same, even as
was had in other places, where the said
Tronage was wont to be kept, and that
the King should pay yeerely to the said
Iohn (during his life) forty shillings, at
the termes of S. Michael and Easter, by
even portions by the hands of his Cu-
stomer,
Custome house.
without any other payment to
the said Iohn, as in the Indenture there-
of more at large appeareth.
Neere unto this Customers Key, to-
wards the East, is the said Water-gate,
and West from it,
Porters Key or Porters lane.
Porters Key: then
Galley Key,
Galley Key.
where the Galleys were u-
sed to unlade, and land their Merchan-
dizes and wares: and that part of Thames
street was therefore of some called Gal-
ley row, but more commonly, Petty-Wales.
Petty-Wales.
On the North side, as well as on the
South of this Thames-street, are many
faire houses, large for stowage, builded
for Merchants, towards the East end
thereof, namely, over against Galley Key,
Wooll Key, and the Custome-house. There
have beene of old time some large buil-
dings of stone, the ruines whereof doe
yet remaine, but the first builders
and owners of them are worne out of
memory: wherefore the common peo-
ple affirme Iulius Caesar to be the builder
thereof, as also of the Tower it selfe, but
thereof I have spoken already. Some
are of another opinion, and that a more
likely, that this great stone building,
was sometime the lodging appointed
for the Princes of Wales, when they re-
payred to this City, and that therefore
the streete in that part is called Petty
Wales,
Princes of Wales their lodging.
which name remaineth there most
commonly untill this day: even as
where the Kings of Scotland were used
to be lodged betwxit Charing-crosse, and
White-hall, it is likewise called Scotland:
and where the Earles of Brittain were
lodged without Aldersgate, the street is
called Brittain street, &c.
The said building might (of old time)
pertaine to the Princes of Wales, as is a-
foresaid, but is since turned to other
use.
It is before noted of Galley Key, that
the Gallies of Italy,
The Mer-
chants of Italy their lodging by their Gal-
lies.
and other parts, did
there discharge their VVines and Mer-
chandizes brought to this City. It is
like therefore that the Merchants and
Owners procured the place to build up-
on for their lodgings and store-houses,
as the Merchants of Haunce of Almaine
were licensed to have an house, called
Guilda Teutonicorum, the Guild-Hall of
the Germanes.
Also the Merchants of Burdeaux were
licensed to build at the Vintry, strongly
with stone, as may yet be seene, and see-
meth old, though often repaired: much
more cause have these buildings in Petty
Wales (though as lately builded, and
partly of the like stone brought from
Cane in Normandy) to seeme old,
No Gal-
lies landed here in memory of men li-
ving.
which
for many yeeres, to wit, since the Gal-
lies left their course of landing there,
hath fallen to ruine, and been letten out
for stabling of horses, to Tipplers of
Beere, and such like. Amongst others,
one Mother Mampudding (as they ter-
med her) for many yeeres kept this
house, or a great part thereof, for victu-
alling: and it seemeth, that the builders
of the Hall of this house were Ship-
wrights, and not house-Carpenters:
for the frame thereof (being but low)
is raised of certaine principall posts of
maine timber,
A strange kind of building by the Shippe-wrights or Galley-men.
fixed deep in the ground,
without any groundsell, boorded close
round about on the inside, having none
other wal from the ground to the roofe:
those boords not exceeding the length
of a Clap-boord, about an inch thicke,
every boord ledging over other, as in a
Ship or Gally nayled with Ship nayles
called rough, and clench, to wit, rough
nayles with broad round heads, and
elenched on the other side with square
plares of Iron. The roofe of this Hall is
also wronght of the like boord, and nay-
led with rough and clench, and seemeth
as it were a Gally, the Keele turned up-
wards: and I observed, that no worme
or rottennesse is seene to have entred in-
to either boord or timber of that Hall,
and therefore, in mine opinion, of no
great antiquity.
I read in the 44. of Edward the third,
An Hospi-
tall for lu-
naticke or phrensie people.

that an Hospitall in the Parish of Bar-
king Church, was founded by Robert
Denton Chaplen, for the sustentation of

poore Priests, and other both men and
women, that were sicke of the Phrenzie,
there to remaine till they were perfectly
whole, and restored to good memory.
Also I read, that in the sixth of Hen.
5. there was in the Tower ward, a Mes-
suage or great house, called Cobhams
Inne:
Cobhams Inne.
and in the 37. of Henry the sixth,
a Messuage in Thames street, pertaining
to Richard Longvile, &c. Some of the
ruines before spoken of, may seeme to
be of the foresaid Hospitall, belonging
peradventure to some Prior Alieu, and
so suppressed amongst the rest, in the
reigne of Edward the third, or Henry the
fifth, who suppressed them all.
Thus much for the bounds and Anti-
quity of this Ward, wherein noted,
first, the Tower of London, three Pa-
rish Churches, the Custome-house,
and two Hals of Companies; to wit,
the Cloth-workers, and the Bakers.
This Ward hath an Alderman, his
Deputy, Common Counsellors eight,
Constables thirteen, Scavengers twelve,
VVard-mote men thirteene, and a Bea-
dle: it is taxed to the Fifteene at six and
twenty pounds.
