Strype says in his time it was chiefly used by market people (ed. 1720, I. iii. 230), and in Rocque's map, 1746, a passage leads direct from the inn into Newgate Market. In O. and M. it is further north than in the later maps, on the site of the Crown Inn. Thus the sites of the two inns are reversed in O. and M.
Mentioned temp. Q. Eliz. (Proc. in Chancery, I. 337).
The site is now occupied by warehouses and offices.
