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.
Walbrook Ward lies between Cheap, Broad Street and Cornhill wards to the north, Langbourn and Candlewick wards to the east, Dowgate Ward to the south and Cordwainer and Vintry wards to the west. The ward contained four City parish churches: St Stephen Walbrook, St John the Baptist Walbrook, St Swithin London Stone and St Mary Bothaw.
