^{page 62 note 1} On the figs. 1 and 8 the whole site is for simplicity called 2-4 Miles Lane, because the excavation was approached from that side. It included, however, the three houses fronting the Bridge Approach. The whole site is now occupied by the Anglo-Egyptian Bank.

^{page 69 note 4} Prof. W. R. Lethaby writes: ‘The flanking wood walls which ran back so much farther than the others seem to have been in such a definite relation to the brick building that I think one work must have belonged to the other. I feel that the wood wall front was a sort of wharfing for levelling up the site of the building, and that the two side walls bounded this particular piece of levelling up. I would venture to suggest that the short intermediate divisions were ties into the made-up ground at the back. I doubt the idea that there was a second inner line making up a thick city wall. The plan of the brick building suggested a simple corridor house.’

^{page 82 note 3} For the storage of timber at Leadenhall, see Stow (ed. Kingsford), i, 158 (quoting a petition of 1519): ‘As also the store of tymber for the necessarie reparations of the tenements belonging to the chamber of the said citie, there commonly hath ben kept.’

^{page 83 note 1} The mention of Bedlam suggests that by Moorditch is here meant Deep Ditch, the last remnant of the Walbrook; that the proposed wall ran along the eastern boundary of Lower Moorfields; and that the stocks stood in the south-eastern corner of the field, and the garden beside Bethlem churchyard. For the stocks, see p. 88 below.

^{page 83 note 2} Along the line of South Place. See the Agas map (fig. 15).

^{page 85 note 1} Is this the last of Deep Ditch and the Walbrook ?

^{page 85 note 2} The spring of Dame Annis was between the present Tabernacle Square and Old Street. The highway appears clearly on Faithorne's map (fig. 16), running north-east between the windmills north of Upper Moorfields and a large polygonal enclosure covered with tenters. It is called Windmill Hill in Roque's map and is now Tabernacle Street. See Stow (ed. Kingsford), i, 16, and ii, 273.

^{page 86 note 1} Unless there is a mistake in these measurements, one can only suppose this wall to be along the bank of a stream, the last relic of a Walbrook tributary. Faithorne, however, shows no trace of a stream east of Upper Moorfields, nor any clear indication of a wall.
