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.
