Foster Lane
Foster Lane is a short street within Cheap ward, in the City of London. It is situated northeast of St Paul's Cathedral and runs southbound Gresham Street to Cheapside. "Foster" is a corruption of "St. Vedast" to whom a church on the east side of the road is dedicated.〔(A treatment of how this occurred. )〕 Another church on Foster Lane - dedicated to St. Leonard - was destroyed in the Great Fire of London and not rebuilt.〔Ben Weinreb and Christopher Hibbert (1983) ''The London Encyclopedia'': 730〕 This church was connected with the Liberty of St. Martin's Le Grand to the east. Goldsmiths' Hall, the livery hall of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths, one of the Twelve Great Livery Companies〔''The History of the Twelve Great Livery Companies of London'', Herbert, W., 1836 self published ()〕 of the City is situated on the northeast corner.〔(Map of Locale )〕 Like much of this area〔The City of London-a history Borer, M.I.C. : New York,D.McKay Co, 1978 ISBN 0-09-461880-1〕 it suffered damage during the Second World War.〔(Details of refurbishment of Goldsmith’s Hall )〕 Although being relatively short in length, Foster Lane is also the location of several bars and restaurants and a small lane (Carey Lane) off it halfway that runs eastward to Gutter Lane. The nearest London Underground station is St. Paul's and the closest mainline railway stations are City Thameslink and Cannon Street. ==References==
