Re: London site of CH
Snsom is still in print. Most entertaining . I have just consulted my 1834 copy of the CH History by Trollope. Lots of lovely latin but fortunately some helpful translations. He lists the gifts by Henry VIII as well as Edwd VI.,of the churches ,manors and messuages etc given to the City Fathers.. It is a very fine pieceof work,well illustrated, but once read it should satisfy the most fervent ch antiquarian until the next century.It lacks a map however. 400 pages of small foolscap and a further 200 pages of appendices. Recommended as a good winter read. Regards

Trollope has been reissued in a facsimile edition by Kessinger publishing. I got mine via Amazon. It is full of interest.

Regret I cannot scan the Trollope to get the translations. The volume would not take kindly to such an action. Edward VI is 12 pages. If you need any check in particular I should like to help. Regards John Saunders Th.B 1948-55

I downloaded the whole thing in pdf to my internet account through work,and it is now on my desktop. No problem!
If only the Revd. Trollope had known about the internet, at the time....
