Margins and Marginality in Fifteenth-Century London Margins and marginality in fifteenth-century London Charlotte Emily Berry Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Historical Research, School of Advanced Study University of London April 2018 1 Declaration of authorship I, Charlotte Emily Berry, hereby declare that the research presented in this thesis is entirely my own work carried out for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Institute of Historical Research and has not been submitted in any previous application for a higher degree. Signed: Date: 2 Abstract Geographic and social marginality were connected in the pre-modern city. Property values, economic topography and transportation combined to create marginal spaces as distinctive transition zones between city and countryside. This thesis explores the complex relationship between marginal space and social marginalisation in fifteenth- century London (1370-1540). It argues that extramural space produced communities which were particularly mobile, and that processes of social marginalisation were spatially informed. The thesis augments the secondary literature of late medieval London, which has often focussed on the city’s institutions and the lives of its citizens, by instead concentrating upon urban life outside the framework of the city government and livery companies. Such an approach is made possible through a combination of digital and quantitative methodologies with in-depth qualitative analysis. Using wills, property records and legal and administrative sources, as full a picture as possible is developed of life on the fringes of the medieval city. Chapter One introduces the themes of the thesis and provides an overview of the secondary literature. It discusses the existing understanding of the concept of ‘marginality’ within the thesis, and suggests a nuanced approach which views marginality as mutable and negotiated rather than being attached to fixed categories of individual. Chapter Two develops the concept of marginality further through close attention to key elements of London’s fringe; its topography, the distribution of wealth around the city and the religious houses which were sited there. The chapter establishes a framework for the meaning of spatial marginality and considers the ambiguities resulting from the patchwork of liberties and precincts interrupting urban space. Chapter Three is an analysis of society and economy on the fringes of the city. It focuses on four parishes; St. Botolph Aldgate, St. Botolph Aldersgate, St. Botolph Bishopsgate, All Hallows London Wall and St. Katharine Cree. Using wills and property records, the chapter argues that property values were generally lower outside the city walls but this did not simply mean that entirely poor suburbs developed. Instead, people were drawn to these neighbourhoods by the mixture of ‘push’ and ‘pull’ factors. In the later fifteenth century, significant landowners invested in the building of cheap rents, particularly outside Bishopsgate. However, other neighbourhoods were particularly attractive to prosperous artisans and aristocratic elites because of the availability of large properties. 3 Chapter Four analyses social networks and spatial connections. It does so primarily using wills. Social Network Analysis (SNA) is used to make comparisons between different cohorts of testators and suggest the complex of factors which could weaken and strengthen community at the margins. Visualisation of bequest patterns using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) suggests that testators had highly localised understandings of urban space, prioritising their own part of the city. Such visualisation also suggests that extramural neighbourhoods had close economic and social ties with the immediate hinterland along their approach road. Chapter Five discusses the importance of mobility in extramural society. Consistory court records, an under-utilised source for the history of mobility, provide unique insights into the ways that people moved around city space and the degree of migration amongst London’s population. It argues that mobility was an unstable period of life, especially for the poor, which was likely to endanger their reputations. Nonetheless, moving around was an important strategy for survival, as demonstrated by the experiences of women who suffered domestic abuse and others ostracised from neighbourhood communities. Chapter Six focuses on processes of social marginalisation and policing. It argues that the neighbourhood was the key venue for the building and dissemination of reputation, and that it was not just the ‘middling sort’ who were engaged in doing so. Authority was exerted through informal and formal means by the householders who formed wardmote juries but also, at the margins of the city, by the leaders of religious houses. The spatial ambiguities of the fringes also created particular opportunities for people to avoid policing or damage to their reputations through tactical use of precinct space. 4 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the help, advice and support of many people. The idea of a study of London’s margins originated during my MA at the IHR, and I am very grateful to Matthew Davies who encouraged me to pursue it as a PhD. He has been a source of encouragement and wise advice from my MA onwards and a great supervisor. Many thanks go to Mark Merry who has been an excellent co-supervisor, unfailingly supportive and enthusiastic throughout, and patient with my database- related questions. Many other scholars and colleagues were generous in giving practical help and advice and discussing ideas. In particular, I would like to thank Justin Colson, who provided the base parish and ward maps used here as well as much advice when I was getting started with GIS, and Shannon McSheffrey, who shared unpublished material including her transcript of the earliest consistory court deposition book. Both have been very encouraging of my work and shared their thoughts at various stages. Anna Boeles Rowland and Olivia Benowitz helpfully shared their insights and expertise about the church court records and, most importantly, their friendship. Audiences and co- panellists at conferences and seminars have also contributed to the intellectual development of the thesis, especially the IHR’s own Medieval and Tudor London, Late Medieval and Metropolitan History seminars. I would also like to thank staff at the London Metropolitan Archives, National Archives and IHR for their assistance, especially Olwen Myhill for her help navigating the ‘Great Wall of Cheapside’. Thank you to all my friends. To my fellow IHR postgrads Becca Browett, Shengyen Lu and Becki Moore for all the tea, chocolate and sympathy. To Will Attwood, Alice Hodge, Amy Jessop, Harriet Robinson and Marie Southall for being a wonderful bunch of people and helping me keep everything in perspective. I am immeasurably grateful to my parents, Alison and John Berry, who are supportive of everything I do and have always encouraged me to be inquisitive. Finally, much gratitude goes to Tom Yeomans who has lived with me on the fringes of medieval London for the past four years and who proof-read the whole thesis. Without his love, support and bean chilli the journey would have been very much more difficult. 5 Contents Declaration of authorship ..................................................................................................................... 2 Abstract .................................................................................................................................................. 3 Acknowledgements ................................................................................................................................ 5 List of figures and tables ....................................................................................................................... 8 Figures ................................................................................................................................................ 8 Tables .................................................................................................................................................. 9 Abbreviations ....................................................................................................................................... 10 Chapter One: Introduction .................................................................................................................. 11 1.1 Definitions and contexts ............................................................................................................ 13 1.1.1 Definitions and contexts: Places ......................................................................................... 17 1.1.2 Definitions and contexts: Institutions and economy ......................................................... 21 1.1.3 Definitions and contexts: Neighbourhood and Community .............................................. 29 1.2 Methodology and sources ........................................................................................................... 35 1.2.1 Sample parishes .................................................................................................................. 36 1.2.2 Digital methodologies .......................................................................................................... 39 1.2.3 Institutional records and marginal lives ........................................................................... 40 1.2.4

Drosdick A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Joel B. Altman, Chair Professor Jeffrey Knapp Professor Albert Russell Ascoli Fall 2010 Abstract In danger of undoing: The Literary Imagination of Apprentices in Early Modern London by Alan J. Drosdick Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor Joel B. Altman, Chair With the life of the apprentice ever in mind, my work analyzes the underlying social realities of plays such as Dekker’s The Shoemaker’s Holiday, Beaumont’s The Knight of the Burning Pestle, Jonson, Chapman, and Marston’s Eastward Ho!, and Shakespeare’s Henriad. By means of this analysis, I reopen for critical investigation a conventional assumption about the mutually disruptive relationship between apprentices and the theater that originated during the sixteenth century and has become a cliché of modern theater history at least since Alfred Harbage’s landmark Shakespeare’s Audience (1941). As a group, apprentices had two faces in the public imagination of renaissance London. The two models square off in Eastward Ho!, where the dutiful Golding follows his master’s orders and becomes an alderman, while the profligate Quicksilver dallies at theaters and ends up in prison.

  • London and Middlesex in the 1660S Introduction: the Early Modern
    London and Middlesex in the 1660s Introduction: The early modern metropolis first comes into sharp visual focus in the middle of the seventeenth century, for a number of reasons. Most obviously this is the period when Wenceslas Hollar was depicting the capital and its inhabitants, with views of Covent Garden, the Royal Exchange, London women, his great panoramic view from Milbank to Greenwich, and his vignettes of palaces and country-houses in the environs. His oblique birds-eye map- view of Drury Lane and Covent Garden around 1660 offers an extraordinary level of detail of the streetscape and architectural texture of the area, from great mansions to modest cottages, while the map of the burnt city he issued shortly after the Fire of 1666 preserves a record of the medieval street-plan, dotted with churches and public buildings, as well as giving a glimpse of the unburned areas.1 Although the Fire destroyed most of the historic core of London, the need to rebuild the burnt city generated numerous surveys, plans, and written accounts of individual properties, and stimulated the production of a new and large-scale map of the city in 1676.2 Late-seventeenth-century maps of London included more of the spreading suburbs, east and west, while outer Middlesex was covered in rather less detail by county maps such as that of 1667, published by Richard Blome [Fig. 5]. In addition to the visual representations of mid-seventeenth-century London, a wider range of documentary sources for the city and its people becomes available to the historian.

  • City, St Katharine Cree
    CITY, ST KATHARINE CREE This church was known as St. Katharine de Christ Church at Alegate in 1280. The 80 ft high tower was built in 1504 at the cost of Sir John Percivall, merchant tailor, at the west end of the south aisle. A spiral staircase in the north-west corner gives access to the ringing chamber. A small bell hangs in the cupola built 1776. This bell and the front five bells are listed. The gilded cock weather-vane is possibly from the previous church. There is a Renaissance sundial of 1662 on the south wall of the tower. Bells were in existence during the reign of King Edward VI. There was a ring of five bells when the Rambling Ringers rang two six-scores of Grandsire in 1733 but they proved difficult to ring. In 1754 the frame was rebuilt and the bells were hung so as to produce an anti-clockwise circle. In 1842 a bell was recast by Thomas Mears II - old bell 11cwt and 21lbs. Meat and poultry were sold in the nearby Leadenhall Market in the 1600’s when the women wore white aprons hence the inclusion in the ‘Oranges and Lemons’ rhyme as, Maids in White Aprons.
