SALTERS' GARDEN

North of Oxford Court (O.S. 1894-6). Formerly on the west and south sides of Salters' Hall (O. and M. 1677-O.S. 1880). In Walbrook Ward.

Wheatley says this was the garden of the Prior of Tortington's house, and afterwards of Oxford Place. If so, it was more extensive formerly than at present, because in O. and M., Salters' Garden is shown to the west, south of and adjoining the Hall, whereas in the O.S.1894-6 this site is built over and the garden is shown north of Oxford Court, but not adjoining the Hall.
