Historique
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 west by Farringdon Ward Within, on the east by Queenhithe and Bread Street wards, and on the south by the River Thames. The ward contained four City parishes churches: St Andrew by the Wardrobe, St Benet Paul's Wharf, St Mary Magdalen Old Fish Street and St Gregory by St Paul.
