Historia
The City of London was divided into wards for the purpose of government as early as Norman times. The wards had responsibility to keep the peace, supervise trade and oversee sanitation, and each ward has the right to elect an Alderman and Commoners to sit in the Court of Common Council.
One of the twenty-six wards of the City of London, bounded on the north and east by Bishopsgate Ward, on the north and west by Coleman Street and Cheap wards and on the South by Walbrook and Cornhill wards. The ward contained six City parish churches: All Hallows London Wall, St Benet Fink, St Peter le Poer, St Bartholomew by the Exchange, St Christopher le Stocks and St Martin Outwich.
