Stow says this about it: In this Parrish Church of S. Mary Magdalen, out of Knightriders street vp to Carter lane, be two small lanes, the one of them called Do Little lane, as a place not inhabited by Artificers, or open shop keepers, but seruing for a neare passage from Knightriders street, to Carter lane
(Stow 2:18).
According to Kingsford, Do Little Lane was later called Knightrider’s Court
(2:359, n.18), but even this name no longer appears on today’s maps of London. St. Peter’s Hill is now in roughly the same place.
