   Stow derives the name "Bothaw" from "boat" and "haw," and says it was so called as adjoining a haw or yard wherein of old time boats were made and landed from Dowgate to be repaired (S. 230). But O.E. "bat" = "boat" would hardly give M.E. "bot."
   The site was preserved for some time in the churchyard. But all trace of it has now been swept away by the erection of Cannon Street Station.
