About this deal

Langbourn is one of 25 wards in the City of London, electing an Alderman to the Court of Aldermen and three Common Councillors to the Court of Common Council. Bentley interprets this evidence as a stream called the Lorteburn recorded east of Seething Lane in the late 13th century. [1] [4] Early references [ edit ] Geoffrey Godard left by his will to Margery his wife, his soc of Lancastre, annually collected on the vigil of Easter in the church of St. Benedict at the hithe, 1273-4 (Ct. H.W. I. 18).

At the end of each year the City Corporation will publish a report of its progress against targets for that year. It will invite its stakeholders to participate in a survey to help it understand how well it is reaching and engaging with them. The John Stowe's 1598 Survey of London records the street name Sharebourne Lane and attributes its origin to the dividing of the stream at this point. Henry Harben's 1918 Dictionary of London [8] asserts that Stowe's explanation "must be left out of account as a possible derivation, inasmuch as it ignores the earliest forms of the name to be found." It goes on to list "Shitteborwelane," "Shiteburn lane," "Shiteb(ur)uelane" and "Shiteburlane as forms of the name recorded around 1300 AD. Harben goes on to state that:

In English River Names, Eilert Ekwall identifies several instances of Lorteburn. He gives the derivation as from an Old English word meaning dirt or filth. [6] Related to the Old Norse lortr ("excrement, faeces"), this implies a dirty or filthy stream, possibly one used for a sewer.

The Lorteburn or Langbourne is a lost stream or river, which ran in the east of the City of London, arising near to Aldgate, flowing south near to the Tower of London, and discharging into the River Thames. The stream appears to have been covered over or dry by the early 14th century [1] but its course has been discovered during archaeological digs in the area [1] and the watershed can be traced in the street level contours of that part of the city as mapped by Kelsey in 1841. [2] The stream gave its name to the Langbourn ward of the city. The river is seldom included on maps or lists of London's lost rivers, and its existence is denied by Nicholas Barton, in his 1962 book Lost Rivers of London, [3] but in more recent work David Bentley argues for its existence. [1] [4] Toponymy [ edit ] South of the Temple Church, in the centre of Tanfield Court, within the Temple precincts (P.O. Directory). The estate now lies in a conservation area. [1] [2] and there has been a programme of regeneration. [3] Private roads [ edit ]The limes in Hillway now some 70 years old, would have grown far too large to be manageable and they are now pruned quite regularly The labumums, which have been planted, are unsuitable trees in that their shape is inartistic and they are only attractive for a short period. We are replacing these gradually with white beams and other species. Only one tree of botanical merit seems to have been planted by the developer and that is the Maidenhair (Ginko Biloba) on the roundabout at the top of Hillway This is probably the third best specimen of this tree in the country only being surpassed at Oxford and Kew. So they applied their minds to see whether the rent charge could be raised. Could, for instance, a sliding scale be introduced to vary with the cost of living index? Bentley then goes on to provide detailed evidence for the Lorteburn's existence. Archaeological evidence has identified dried stream beds in this part of the city. Discoveries include: Founded by Henry IV. and the executors of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, for charity priests to officiate in a chapel on the north side of the choir of St. Paul's.

How we make a difference

Many of the events depicted in this book are true, and can beindependently researched. There are some incidents that I obviously The above map is reproduced online as the Medieval London, 1270 - 1300 layer of Layers of London at https://www.layersoflondon.org/map/overlays/medieval-london-1270-1300 There was no sign remaining of the brook in Stow's time and his derivation of the name seems to be purely mythical. There is no reason to suppose that there was ever a brook or stream running in this direction in this part of the City, and the levels along the streets do not indicate the existence of the bed of a stream. If you’re looking for parking at Whitby Abbey, then we recommend the Abbey Headland car park. There are 421 spaces here, 6 of which are disabled. There are also ten coach bays. In 1981, David Bentley assembled evidence for the stream's existence, relying on archaeological and map evidence, especially in the records of the Museum of London. He first points out there is a shallow linear valley in that part of the city, first identified by Richard Kelsey's topographical survey in 1841. [2] The topography of this part of London has been changed almost beyond recognition since the 1841 survey, especially by the construction of the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway and its terminus at Fenchurch Street railway station, and thus this valley can no longer be seen in the modern contours.
