In the reign of Henry VIII, England’s admiralty courts were combined into the High Court of Admiralty (Elton 155).

(Baker 132). For an accessible overview, see Wikipedia. Records surviving from the High Court of Admiralty are held at the National Archives. -

The Court of Aldermen was composed of senior officials known asaldermen,
who were each elected to represent one ward of London. The Mayor of London oversaw the Court of Aldermen and was himself an alderman.

The Court of Aldermen exists today in a somewhat modified form. -

(Baker 136). After the Great Fire of 1666, the Court of Arches often met at the Doctors’ Commons, Knightrider Street (Keene and Harding 199-212). For an accessible overview, see Wikipedia. An extensive archive of Court of Arches cases is held at the Lambeth Palace Library. -

by the Act of Supremacy. Queen Mary I repealed this act in 1555. In 1559, as part of what is now known as the Elizabethan Religious Settlement, parliament restored the act and made Queen Elizabeth ISupreme Governor of the Church of England,
a role still held by the British monarch today. The Church of England has been the official Christian church in England since 1559. Its doctrinal position was set out in theThirty-Nine Articles
of 1563 and finalized in 1571, at which point they were incorporated into the Book of Common Prayer that had governed the liturgical form of Church of England services since 1549. -

Sir John Baker claims that this society was already established in the fifteenth century by thedoctors of the Arches
(Baker 180). Encyclopaedia Britannica states that the society leased a building near Paternoster Row from 1565 until their dissolution in the nineteenth century; however, most scholars agree that the Doctors’ Commons moved from their Paternoster Row location to a building in Knightrider Street early in Elizabeth I’s reign (Doctors’ Commons,
Thornbury, Harben). A motion to dissolve the Doctors’ Commons was put forth in 1858 and by 1865 they had sold both their library and building (Baker 181). Most of the records surviving from the Doctors’ Commons are housed at the Lambeth Palace Library. For an accessible overview, see Wikipedia. -

In the wake of the Reformation, members of the order fled the country or remained in England andeither drifted into poverty, or else entered the ranks of the secular clergy
(Jarrett 169). -

From 1466, the Fraternity of the Trinity was in order in Leadenhall until the brief reign of King Edward VI when, under the counsel of Thomas Cranmer, the King signed the Abolition of the Chantries Act in 1547 (Colleges: Fraternity of the Holy Trinity). -

Blackfriars (Farringdon Within)
The largest and wealthiest friary in England, Blackfriars was not only a religious institution but also a cultural, intellectual, and political centre of London. The friary housed London’s Dominican friars (known in England as the Black friars) after their move from the smaller Blackfriars precincts in Holborn. The Dominicans’ aquisition of the site, overseen by Robert Kilwardby, began in 1275. Once completed, the precinct was second in size only to St. Paul’s, spanning eight acres from the Fleet to Puddle Dock Hill and from Ludgate to the Thames. Blackfriars remained a political and social hub, hosting councils and even parlimentary proceedings, until its surrender in 1538 pursuant to Henry VIII’s Dissolution of the Monasteries (Holder 27–56).Blackfriars (Farringdon Within) is mentioned in the following documents:

Enduring for over three centuries, longer than any other London friary, Greyfriars garnered support from both England’s landed elite and common Londoners.

The friary expanded from its original pittance of land on the west side of Stinking Lane to over four-and-a-half acres by 1354. With the patronage of Queens Margaret, Isabella, and Philippa throughout the fourteenth century, the Franciscans constructed a formidable church, London’s third largest after St. Paul’s and Westminster Abbey. After the friary’s closure in 1538 pursuant to the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the church became the centre of the newly established Christ Church parish, and the cloisters housed Christ’s Hospital (Holder 66–96).Greyfriars is mentioned in the following documents:
