Excerpt from Brief Notices of the Fabric and Glebe of Saint Mary Aldermary: In the City of London The Commissioners of Sewers for the city of London, acting under the statute of 57 Geo. 3, cap. 29, commonly called 'The Metropolis Paving Act,' having recently widened Watling Street, between Queen Street and Bow Lane, by laying into the highway a plot of ground, whereon formerly stood five houses, numbered from 33 to 37, both inclusive, (see Plate 1, No. 2,) being a considerable portion of the glebe land on the North side of the church of St. Mary Aldermary, one of Sir Christopher Wren's most beautiful erections, it may not be uninteresting, at this conjuncture, when the attention of the neighbourhood, and of the city in general, is drawn to the improvement which has taken place, to bring together, from various printed authorities, the records of the parish, and documents in the Rector's possession, a few brief notices of the Fabric and Glebe: should a second edition of these pages be called for, it may possibly be in his power to render them, by a further Selection from his MS. Collections, more worthy the acceptance of his Antiquarian Friends, but it seemed desirable to send them to the press without loss of time, though somewhat too hastily, before the North Wall (see Plate 1, No. 1,) is hidden from observation by the new facing. (See Plate 2.) This Church is known by the adjunct Aldermary, or Oldermary, to be the oldest church in London called by the name of St. Mary, and therefore originally of a very ancient foundation, prior even to St. Mary le Bow, which was a church in the days of William the Conqueror.
