Full Description
{1} The charters are vague but close reading suggests that some burgage tenements may have clustered on the west side of Watling Street, near to the junction with Park Lane.
In 1501 a tenement was described as 30 feet wide along Watling Street and 27’ 7 wide at the head of the garden. (This may have been on the west side of Watling Street near the corner of Park Lane).
