Heneage Lane
   South out of Bevis Marks at No. 16 (P.O. Directory). In Aldgate Ward.
   First mention: Strype, ed. 1720.
   Other names and forms of name : "Beavis lane" (O. and M. 1677). "Henneage lane," otherwise called "Lousie or Lousy" lane (W. Stow, 1722, and Rev. of London, 1728). "Henege Lane" (Rocque, 1746). "Innage Lane" (Horwood, 1799). "Heneagle lane" vulg. "louse lane" by Creechurch lane (P.C. 1732).
   Derivation of name : Stow tells us that Bevis Marks was given to Thomas Heneage at the dissolution of the Abbey of Bury (S. 148), and we find Heneadge House mentioned in the description of the bounds of the parish of St. Katherine Creechurch, opposite Duke's Place, west of the lane leading to Bevis Marks (S. ed. 1633, p. 150). The house and subsequently the lane were named after this Thomas Heneage.
