Historia
A demise is a legal document allowing the transfer of an estate by will or lease. Harpur Street is off Theobald's Road, near Red Lion Square in Holborn.
The Bedford Charities were founded by Lord Mayor Sir William Harpur and his wife Alice. In 1566 the couple endowed a school in Bedford, as well as leaving funds for general poor relief within the town. The endowment included property in Bedford and some land in Holborn. The charity still exisits and promotes education, relieves the sick and those in hardship, and provides recreational facilities with a social welfare purpose.
