Cardinal’s Hat Tavern

Cardinal’s Hat Tavern was a tavern that likely sat at the meeting of Cornhill and Lombard Street. Stow mentions the Cardinal’s Hat Tavern only in passing, using the site as a reference for a path between the two streets.
According to Jacob Henry Burn in A Descriptive Catalogue of the London Traders, Taverns, and Coffee-houses (1855):
Simon Eyre [...] gave the tavern [...] with a tenement annexed on the east part of the tavern, and a mansion behind the east tenement, with an alley from Lombard street to Cornhill, and the appurtenances [...] toward a brotherhood of our Lady, in St. Mary Woolnoth’s church [...]
(156)
