Excerpt from History of the Ward of Walbrook in the City of London: Together With an Account of the AldermenFrom an ecclesiastical point of view it must have been an important centre, there having been, previous to the fire, no less than five churches within its precincts, a large number for so small a Ward.Again, the proximity of the river on one side, for many centuries the only means by which access was gained to the City for foreign produce and manufactures, and on the other side of the Ward in as close proximity, the bankers and merchants of Lombard Street, gave it an importance which at all times was of the greatest value to the inhabitants.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
