In a Table hanging up in the Church, it is set up 36l. per Ann. and said to be reduced to 15l. and that the Chamber of London stop'd it.

This Parish hath a Parsonage-house, wherein the Minister doth dwell, or lately did. It is observable in the Parochial Visitation, Anno 1636, there was no Parsonage-house.

By this Church sometime passed a Lane called Craddocks lane, from Mart lane, winding by the North side of the said Church into Fenchurch street; the which Lane being straightned by Incroachments, was afterwards called Church alley: now Star Alley.

Then is the Parish Church of St. Nicolas Acon, or Hacon (for so have I read it in Records) in Lombard Street. Sir John Bridges Draper, Maior, 1520. newly repaired this Church, and imbattled it, and was there buried.

This Church was repaired and beautified in the Year of our Lord God 1615. at the Cost and Charge of the Parishioners.
