I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of experience. — James Joyce, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man In the early 1340s, in Vintry Ward, London— the time and place of Chaucer’s birth— a book went missing. It wasn’t a very important book. Known as a ‘portifory,’ or breviary, it was a small volume containing a variety of excerpted religious texts, such as psalms and prayers, designed to be carried about easily (as the name demonstrates, it was portable).1 It was worth about 20 shillings, the price of two cows, or almost three months’ pay for a carpenter, or half of the ransom of an archer captured by the French.2 The very presence of this book in the home of a mer- chant opens up a window for us on life in the privileged homes of the richer London wards at this time: their inhabitants valued books, ob- jects of beauty, learning, and devotion, and some recognized that books could be utilized as commodities. The urban mercantile class was flour- ishing, supported and enabled by the development of bureaucracy and of the clerkly classes in the previous century.3 While literacy was high in London, books were also appreciated as things in themselves: it was 1 Sharpe, Calendar of Letter- Books of the City of London: Letter- Book F, fol.

    September 2020 Cordwainer A report from your Ward team: Working with you through 2020’s challenges and looking to the recovery Your Ward team, Alderman Sir Roger Gifford and Common Councillors Sir Michael Snyder, Alex Barr and Tracey Graham were acutely aware at the start of the COVID-19 crisis earlier this year that their multi-faceted civic role would have to adapt. The team’s focus therefore moved immediately to one thing, and one thing alone: that of supporting all the Cordwainer community (which is mostly businesses, but also includes a small residential population and rough sleepers) through the pandemic. Most of the work was in managing the many inbound enquiries on business rates or the package of government grants for small businesses, particularly for from current rising City footfall levels, and the retail, leisure and hospitality sectors. tube/train passenger volumes. Despite the With government support evolving headlines around the likely continuation through the crisis your team became of working from home, and September’s a central conduit for the distribution and new restrictions on gatherings, the team interpretation of that rapidly changing have been gladdened to see at first hand information.

  • London Mercers
    -324- MERCERS IN MEDIEVAL LONDON A FAMILY OF MERCERS IN MEDIEVAL LONDON by Shirley Garton Straney1 ABSTRACT A fourteenth century family coordinating elements of English life, the academy, the church, the crown, land, commerce and family connections to become significant participants in London life. Foundations (2005) 1 (5): 324-337 © Copyright FMG A study of medieval London describes Hugh Garton as a Yorkshireman and one of the “three leading Wardrobe mercers” in that city, and also Sheriff in 1313 and Alderman of Coleman Street ward from 1319 until his death in 1327 (Williams, 1963, pp.134-135 & 140). Although the study refers to him as an immigrant to London, he was not the first of the name there. The first found in the Corporation of London’s books is William Garton, Citizen and Mercer of London who on Thursday, 19 March 1292/3 was granted a shop in Sopers Lane in the parish of St. Pancras by Hugh Chelmeford, Citizen of London and his wife Alice2. Thus began the family in Sopers Lane in Cordwainer ward in London, centre of the Mercers and Pepperers, and near to the Guildhall, where the Citizens met. In this period the Citizens, including William Garton, agreed to send twenty men with horses to accompany Sir Edward, the king’s son, to protect the coast of Kent and stay four weeks3. On 25 April 1311 William was one of the receivers of 1,000 marks to be sent to the king in Scotland4. They delivered this by messenger to the king, and purchased a horse from William Garton for the use of the messenger.

  • City of London Spatial Classification
    LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.8 LONDON AND SPATIAL CLASSIFICATION Note: Following the LEH website conventions, ‘London’ refers to the parliamentary constituency. ‘City of London’ is the spatial entity O! [London’s] Lamps of a night! Her rich goldsmiths, print shops, toy shops, mercers, hardwaremen, pastry cooks! – St. Paul’s churchyard, the Strand! Exeter Change! – Charing Cross, with the man upon a black horse! – These are thy Gods O London – … All the streets and pavements are pure gold, I warrant you. – At least I know an Alchemy that turns her mud into that metal – a mind that loves to be at home in Crowds... .1 ‘London’ has long meant different things to different people. As Charles Lamb’s enthusiastic commentary indicated, it catered well for those who could cope with its crowds and diversity. Administrative London, the centre of national government, overlapped with the legal and legislative centres of the nation, while the West End became the seasonal playground of the well-to-do and the home of smart shops, with poor areas providing cheap labour tucked among the grandeur. Eastwards, commercial and financial London focused on the port and the City of London itself. It had a different appearance: of wharves and warehouses riverwards, and dwelling-places and nearby counting-houses. To take one literary example, Elizabeth Bennet’s uncle Gardiner was a City wholesaler, living, as Jane Austen specified, ‘by trade and within view of his own warehouses.’2 But over time, the City’s business premises were increasingly supplanting residential properties within the inner city, as the march of London into Middlesex provided accommodation for the teeming masses of the metropolis.
