The Herrings and the First Great Combine PART II The Hanseatic League in England By Walter Mucklow The Site From the earliest times the German merchants had a depot behind Cannon street station, near the foot of the narrow Dow­ gate hill bordering the west side of the station. Apparently this neighborhood had for centuries been a centre of activities, for in few London streets have there been found more Roman remains than in Thames street, along a part of which ran the old Roman river wall, built on oak piles, overlaid by a stratum of chalk and stone and covered with hewn sandstone set in cement. In places this wall is twenty feet thick and some of the beams were 18 inches square. The Easterlings, as the early German merchants were called, first settled here and occupied the Hall of the Easterlings: later the merchants of Cologne held a part of Dowgate: and subse­ quently these two united, being then known as the “Merchants of Almaigne” and owned the “Dutch Guildhall.” The site was important, for in early times Dowgate was the only city gate opening to the river; therefore, it controlled foreign traffic and was of great value to the Germans in their efforts to govern this important business.
