Note Fair street, referenced to Widow Mary Webb's Meeting House and garden still exists. The neighborhood is of course much changed. The Meering house was torn down by soldiers then rebuilt at least twice before disappearing altogether after 1800.

This is just south of the famous Tower Bridge.

The Quaker meeting House site is seen clearly on https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ea/John_Rocque_174... just above St. John's church yard (1746 map) This shows the referenced "Parish Street" also.
