This Lane runneth North to the West ende of S.
Nicholas
Shambles. Of olde time was one great house, sometimes belonging
to the Earles of Britaine, since that to the Louels, and was called
Henry the 6. Then is Eldenese Lane, which stretcheth North to
the high stréete of Newgate Market, the same is now called War
wiche Lane, of an auncient house there builded by an Earle of War
wicke, and was since called Warwicke Inne. It is on record called
a Messuage in Eldenese Lane, in the parish of S. Sepulchre, the
28. of Henry the 6. Cicille the Duches to Warwicke, possessed it.
Now againe from the Conduit by Powles gate on the North side,
is a large stréete, running West to Newgate: the first part whereof,
from the Conduit to the Shambles, is (of selling bladders there) cal
led Bladder stréete. Then behinde the Butchers shoppes be now di
uers slaughter houses inward, and Tipling houses outward. This
is called Mountgodard Stréete, by all likelihood of the Tipling hou
ses there, and the Goddards or Pots, mounting from the tap to the
table, from the table to the mouth, and sometimes ouer the head. Al
so this stréete goeth vp to the North end of Iuie Lane. Before this
Mountgodard stréete, stall boords were set vp by the Butchers, to
shewe and to sell their flesh meate vpon, ouer the which stalboords,
they first builded sheads to kéepe off the weather: but since that, in
croching by litle and litle, they haue made these stall boords & sheads,
faire houses, méete for the principall Shambles. Next is Newgate
Market, first of corne and meale, and then of other victualls, which
stretcheth almost to Eldenese Lane. A faire, new, and strong frame
of Timber couered with leade was therefore set vppe at the char
ges to the Citie, neare to the West corner of S. Nicholas shambles,
for the meale to be weyed, in the 1. of Ed. the 6. Sir Iohn Gresham
being then Maior. On this side the North corner of Eldenese Lane,
was sometime a propper parish Church of S. Ewine, (as is before
said) was giuen by Henry the 8. towards the erecting of Christes
Church: it was taken downe, and in place thereof, a faire strong
frame of timber was erected, wherein dwell men of diuers Trades.
And from this frame to Newgate, is all of this Warde, and so an
ende thereof. It hath an Alderman, his Deputie, Common Coun

ultimately derives from an Old English word meaningking’s son
(Ekwall 81-82). Watling Street remains distinct from the Noble Street in Aldersgate Ward.Watling Street is mentioned in the following documents:

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).

Blackfriars (Farringdon Within)
The largest and wealthiest friary in England, Blackfriars was not only a religious institution but also a cultural, intellectual, and political centre of London. The friary housed London’s Dominican friars (known in England as the Black friars) after their move from the smaller Blackfriars precincts in Holborn. The Dominicans’ aquisition of the site, overseen by Robert Kilwardby, began in 1275. Once completed, the precinct was second in size only to St. Paul’s, spanning eight acres from the Fleet to Puddle Dock Hill and from Ludgate to the Thames. Blackfriars remained a political and social hub, hosting councils and even parlimentary proceedings, until its surrender in 1538 pursuant to Henry VIII’s Dissolution of the Monasteries (Holder 27–56).Blackfriars (Farringdon Within) is mentioned in the following documents:

Greyfriars
Enduring for over three centuries, longer than any other London friary, Greyfriars garnered support from both England’s landed elite and common Londoners. Founded in 1225 on a tenament donated by London Mercer John Iwyn, Greyfriars housed London’s Franciscan Friars (known in England as the Grey Friars). The friary expanded from its original pittance of land on the west side of Stinking Lane to over four-and-a-half acres by 1354. With the patronage of Queens Margaret, Isabella, and Philippa throughout the fourteenth century, the Franciscans constructed a formidable church, London’s third largest after St. Paul’s and Westminster Abbey. After the friary’s closure in 1538 pursuant to the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the church became the centre of the newly established Christ Church parish, and the cloisters housed Christ’s Hospital (Holder 66–96).Greyfriars is mentioned in the following documents:

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.
