Tanner's Seld

Tanner's Seld
   On the north side of Westchepe in the parish of St. Mary le Bow, 1544 (L. and P. H. VIII. XIX. Pt. 2, p.315)
   Earliest mention: " Tanner's seld " in Westchep, 1293-4 (Ct. H.W. I. iii).
   Given to the commonalty of the mistery of tanners 6 H. IV. 1405 (Cal. P.R. 1401-5, p.500).
   Many tanners had tables there in the 14th century.
   "Le Tannersheld," now called "le Cowface," 1544 (L. and P. H. VIII. XIX. Pt. 2, p.315).
   Can "Cowface" be an error for" Crownshilde " by misunderstanding and misreading of abbreviation marks and letters?
   The "Crownseld" was called "Tamarsilde" by Stow (p.259), which should probably be "Tannarsilde" (See Crowned Seld).
   There was another seld called "Tanners seld " in Friday Street, in which the foreign tanners were allowed to expose their wares for sale, 1370 (Riley's Mem. p.343), and to which they had to pay dues, 1337 (Ct. H.W. I. 421).
   See Selds.
