Panyer Alley
City, 4, Paternoster Row. (EC4) Was so called (Stow says) from a small stone monument placed about the centre, erected in 1688, having the figure of a pannier, with a naked boy sitting upon it with a bunch of grapes held between his hand and foot, and underneath the following couplet: "When you have sought the city round, Yet still this is the highest ground." (Reference: Smith's Streets of London, p. 322) |
