Orientated East to West, this plan follows Bishopsgate from Fenchurch Street past Cornhill and Leadenhall Street up to what is modern day Liverpool Street Station. The coat of arms is that of Matthew Blakiston, the local Alderman. The two vignettes illustrate the churches of St Ethelburga and St. Helen's Bishopgate, rare survivors of both the Great Fire of 1666 and the Blitz. Coloured. [LDN6107] |
