All Hallows, Honey Lane was parish church in the City of London, England. Of medieval origin, it was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666 and not rebuilt; the site became part of Honey Lane Market, which was in turn cleared to make way for the City of London School in the 19th century. ==Location== All Hallows Honey Lane was located at the north end of Honey Lane, a narrow lane leading north from Cheapside. The church was surrounded on three sides by churchyard and enclosed by private houses. It was situated about north of Cheapside. John Stow's Survey of 1603 indicates the parish was part of Cheap Ward of the City of London.〔('Cheape warde' ), A Survey of London, by John Stow: Reprinted from the text of 1603 (1908), pp. 258-276.〕 After the Great Fire, the site, together with that of the adjoining church of St. Mary Magdalen Milk Street and several houses, was acquired by the City, cleared, and laid out as a market-place, called Honey Lane Market.〔〔''The City of London - a history'' Borer, M.I.C. : New York, D.McKay Co, 1978 ISBN 0-09-461880-1〕 The former church was situated in the northwest corner of this market.〔''An exact surveigh of the streets, lanes and churches, comprehend.d plats, 10 Decem.r A.o Dom.i 1666'', Leake J.(Engr Vertue,G 1723)〕 The market closed in 1835 and the Corporation of London built the first City of London School there. After the bombings of World War II, the area was comprehensively redeveloped. The alignment of the present Honey Lane is about east of the original lane.〔 The church site is now occupied by a British Telecom shop at 114 Cheapside.〔(British Telecom Shop at site )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「All Hallows Honey Lane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
