Summary
Folios 144r–149v contain deeds relating to Shoe Lane. The red-ink heading on f. 144r is “Scholane” and thereafter the verso pages have the heading “Schoo” or “Sho” and the recto pages “lane”, until f. 149v, whose heading is “Sholane” (and a new section starts at the foot of that page). The same style as above is kept to, no initials have been done but a space is left for each.

Item, I give and leave to Humphrey Hayford, Thomas Harryson, William Prynce, and John Kelke, wardens of the Goldsmiths’ Mistery of London, and to the community of the same mistery, all those messuages of mine, lands, tenements, reversions, rents, and services with appurtenances situated in the lane called Shoe Lane in the parish of St Bride’s Fleet Street, London. To have and to hold all the aforesaid messuages, lands, tenements, reversions, rents, and services with appurtenances by the aforesaid wardens and the community and their successors as wardens and community of the aforesaid Goldsmiths’ Mistery, whoever they may be in perpetuity, from the chief lords of that fee by the services due from them and accustomed by right, for the assistance, subsidy, and increase of the support of blind, wearied, infirm and poor alms-people of the community of the same mistery.
