(St.) Nicholas New Fish Street

(St.) Nicholas New Fish Street
,(St.) Nicholas West Fish Street
   Earliest mention: "St. Nicholas at Westfishstreet." " Westpiscariam," Rich. I. (Anc. Deeds, A. 1695). " St. Nicholas at Fish Street," 5 John (ib. A. 2493). " Fish Street " (Piscaria) in parish of" St. Nicholas Fish Street " (ib. A. 2496). " St. Nicholas at West Fish Street," H. III. (ib. A. 2725).
   St. Nicholas in the Old Fish Market," 1309 (Ct. H.W. I. 206). " St. Nicholas of the Fish-market," 1210-6 (H. MSS. Corn. 9th Rep. 22). "St. Nicholas at New Fish Street" (ad novam piscariam) (Anc. Deeds. A. 2332). " St. Nicholas in noua pise," 13th century (MS. D. and C. St. Paul's, W.D. 12).
   It seems most probable that these entries relate to St. Nicholas Cole Abbey, which stood in Old Fish Street, but as the parish of St. Nicholas Olave was also partly in the same street, it is impossible in some cases to state definitely to which of the two parishes the entries refer.
   The task is rendered more difficult from the fact that it is not easy to locate accurately the position of the " nova piscaria" or of " West Fish Street."
