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.

In 1536, Suffolk Place became the property of Henry VIII. Thereafter, the property was occasionally used as a royal residence. In 1545, a Royal Mint was established in the building, but the Mint was closed in 1551 after the discovery of fraud. This residence continued to be known asSuffolk Place

orGrasplatz
which means garden (Harben Herber (The)). Richard Neville, the Fifth Earl of Salisbury was lodged there at the beginning of the War of the Roses in 1457 (Harben Herber (The), Stow 66). According to Stow, the Herber was later inhabited by Sir Francis Drake (Stow 249).

Former Student Contributors
We’d also like to acknowledge students who contributed to MoEML’s intranet predecessor at the University of Windsor between 1999 and 2003. When we redeveloped MoEML for the Internet in 2006, we were not able to include all of the student projects that had been written for courses in Shakespeare, Renaissance Drama, and/or Writing Hypertext. Nonetheless, these students contributed materially to the conceptual development of the project.
