  • 'We Care Not a Fig, Who Is Lord Mayor of London, Or Tory Or Whig':1 Popular Political Culture in the City of London, C.1725
    ‘We care not a Fig, who is Lord Mayor of London, or Tory or Whig’: 1 Popular Political Culture in the City of London, c.1725-46 Eleanor Bland The Georgian City of London was a site of lively political activity, as Londoners from all walks of life engaged in formal and informal ways with political events and structures. This article provides a fresh perspective by examining City politics from the grass-roots level, from the streets and alleys of the City, revealing powerful internal City dialogues. The focus is on the period between the City Elections Act of 1725, and the repeal of its most unpopular provision, the Aldermanic veto, in 1746. This corresponds to an era of intense agitation both in the City, where political events were frequently the topic of newspaper reports and pamphlets, and nationwide, with mounting opposition to Prime Minister Robert Walpole and his corrupt ‘Whig Oligarchy’. The City, as Nicholas Rogers and Henry Horwitz argue, played a vital role in the national political opposition to Walpole’s deeply unpopular Excise Bill of 1733, and his 1739 treaty with Spain; these provoked widespread opposition as affronts to City merchants’ trading interests, making this a particularly turbulent period. 2 However, this study uncovers a groundswell of citizen political activism through an analysis of the dialogues of elections to the Common Council. The Corporation of London was governed by the Lord Mayor, the Court of Aldermen and the much larger Court of Common Council, the legislative body for civic matters. Common Council

  • The Lost Church of St Botolph
    The Lost Church of St Botolph St Botolph was a 7th-century East Anglian saint, traditionally associated with the pre-Conquest monastic community at Icanho (probably Iken near Snape in Suffolk). This monastery was allegedly destroyed in Viking raids and the saint’s relics were then removed in the 10th century (although Pestell contends that the story of the destruction may have merely been justification for the removal - Pestell 2004, 91). The translation of the relics ultimately entailed the splitting of the body into three parts for distribution to different monastic establishments: the head went to Ely, the middle part to Thorney, and the remainder to Westminster. In London, four churches were dedicated to the saint: St Botolph’s Aldgate, Aldersgate, Bishopsgate and Billingsgate. All the London churches were located next to gateways in the city wall, even Billingsgate where the foundations of the lost church were excavated in the 1980s next to river access through the remains of the Roman riverside wall. This association with boundaries seems to have been common by the end of the 11th century and indeed St Botolph Billingsgate was where merchants from Flanders, Normandy and the Rhineland paid tolls. Even churches abroad, such as St Botolph in Viborg, Denmark, were located at the boundary of the medieval town (Morris 1989, 219). The position of the lost St Botolph in Norwich therefore is intriguing. The earliest known documentary reference to the Norwich church is in the later 13th century when it is referred to as (Ecclesia) Sancti Botulphi (Sandred and Lindström 1989, 36) but it seems very probable that the church existed before 1066.
