Bevis Marks
Bevis Marks, classified as the A1211, is a street in the ward of Aldgate in the City of London. Traffic runs northwest in a one-way direction into Camomile Street, and parallel to Houndsditch which runs southeast one-way. ==History== The street has been called Bewesmarkes (1407), Bevys Marke (1450), Bevesmarkes (1513), Bevers-market (1630), and Beavis Markes (1677), prior to Bevis Marks (since 1720).〔( 'Bevis Marks', A Dictionary of London (1918) ) Date accessed: 11 February 2011〕 The antiquarian John Stow believed the name to derive from the Abbots of Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, in whose ownership this part of the city was until the Dissolution of the Monasteries. At that time, their possessions were passed to Sir Thomas Heneage, a gentleman of the Privy chamber in attendance on King Henry VIII.〔(History of Parliament at Tudorplace ) accessed 20 October 2006〕 He is commemorated in the name of nearby Heneage Lane. Bevis Marks is mentioned several times in Charles Dickens's ''The Old Curiosity Shop'' as the street where solicitor Sampson Brass has his offices.
