Brief
History of Eastcheap Eastcheap Street ran east-west, from Tower Street to St. Martin's Lane. West of New Fish Street/Gracechurch Street, Eastcheap was known as "Great Eastcheap." The portion of the street to the east of New Fish Street/Gracechurch Street was known as "Little Eastcheap."
Eastcheap (Eschepe or Excheapp) was the site of a medieval food market. "C[h]eap" is an Anglo-Saxon verb that means "to barter, buy, and sell; to trade, deal, bargain". |
