Description
English: The Wards of Breadstreet and Cordwainer

Including Bow Lane, Friday Street, New Queen St., Watling St, Distaff Lane and Budge Row. Grope Countelane in the middle (blue) is bordered by Bordhawlane on the right, and Puppekirtylane on the left. Although these streets are mostly gone, the map does demonstrate the number of narrow streets in the area.

The 1720 map is from
