Notes:
"On the South Side of Fleet Street . . .is Bride-lane, and therein Bridewel, of old Time the King's House; for the Kings of this Realm have been there lodged, and their Courts of Law have been there kept of old Time. And, 'till the 9th of Henry III. the Courts were kept in the King's House, wheresoever he was lodged, as may appear by antient Records. King Henry VIII. built there a stately and beautiful House, new, for the reception of the Emperor Charles V. who, in the Year 1522, was lodged himself at Black-fryars; but his Nobles in this new built Bridewel, a Gal'ery being made over the Water, and through the Wall of the City, into the Emperor's Lodging at Black-fryars.
