Geographical Notes and Social context: "ST. GILES, CRIPPLEGATE, the church of, is situated without the walls of London and at the south-west corner of Fore-street, nearly opposite the ends of Redcross-street and Whitecross-street. It derives its name from having been dedicated to a saint of that name, who was a native of Athens and flourished about the year 700 of the Christian era, who was abbot of Nismes, in France, and its addition from its situation. This church was built and founded about the year 1090, by Alfune, the first master of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and was destroyed by fire in 1545. The present structure was then erected, which is one of the few churches in the city that escaped the great fire of 1666. . . . The site of this parish was anciently a fen or moor, and its houses and gardens were accounted a village without the wall of London called Mora, whence the district called the Moor and Moorfields. . . . In this church are deposited the mortal remains of many eminent authors; among which are, Speed, the historian and topographer; Fox, the author of the Book of Martyrs; Glover, the antiquary; and, above all, Milton, the author of Paradise Lost. . . The church is a vicarage, in the city and archdeaconry of London, and the present vicar is the Rev. William Holmes, Sub-Dean of the Chapel Royal, and Priest in Ordinary to the King, a Minor Canon of St Paul's, and Rector of Aveley, in Essex, who was instituted in 1802." [J. Elmes, A Topographical Dictionary of London and its Environs (1831) - transcribed by Brian Randell]^[1]
