1)Out of Monkwell Street (Strype, ed. 1755-Boyle, 1799).

Not named in the maps.

2)South out of Hart Street in Cripplegate Ward Within (P.C. 1732 Boyle, 1799).

Former name : " Bowyers Court " (O. and M. 1677-Strype, 1755).

The Parish Clerks' Survey gives both names : " Bowyers Court," vulgarly " Baker's Alley."

Strype says " Bowyers Hall " formerly stood here, hence the name (Strype, ed. 1720. I. iii. 90).

The site has been rebuilt and is now occupied by offices and business houses.
