The Pavement

A Dictionary of London by Henry A Harben.

"The Pavement" was in Chepe, and was a recognised market-place for corn, situate probably near the west end of St. Michael le Quern (Cal. L. Bk. C. p.58).


Corn to be sold at a fair price and kept clean, 1299-1300 (ib.).

A portion of the proceeds of these sales was applied for murage of the City (ib. 163).

There seems also to have been " a pavement" before the house of the Grey Friars at Newgate, and one at Gracechurch, 1315 (Cal. Letter Bk. E. pp.56-7).
