Plan of the Elizabethan port of London
The map facing this page shows the approximate location and size of the legal quays on the north bank of the Thames as they were surveyed and established at the beginning of Elizabeth's reign. The scale and outline of the river front are taken from Wenceslaus Hollar's engraving of John Leake's Exact Surveigh of 1666 (1667). Evidence for the location and size of the quays will be found in Appendix IV. The survey and limitation of the port are discussed in the Introduction.
