Oat Lane

Oat Lane[1] is a short street in Bassishaw Ward, London.[2] First mentioned by Leake [3] in 1666[4], it runs from Noble Street[5] to Staining Lane[6]. The Great Hall of the Worshipful Company of Pewterers stands midway down it. In previous times a church St Mary Staining stood here[7] and a small garden still marks the spot[8].
