Barbican Manor

Barbican Manor was a manor on Barbican Street. There is a Barbican label on the Agas map, but it is unclear whether it refers to the street or the manor. The position of the feature on the Agas map near the Barbican label corresponds to the manor’s position on the 1520 map. According to Stow, the site of Barbican Manor was previously the site of Barbican Tower, a watchtower or barbican, from which both the manor and street got their names. The site was granted to Robert Efforde in 1336 (Stow 52).
