(THE) PRINCE'S WARDROBE

   Messuage and orchards, etc., in parish of St. Olave in the Old " Jure," called the " Prynces Wardrobe," 6 Eliz. (1564) (Lond. I. p.m. II. 25).

   It seems to have occupied the site of houses formerly belonging to the Jews at the north-west corner of Old Jewry and to have been called "the King's palace in the olde Jewrie," 16 H. VI., and in Stow's youth, "the old Wardrope" (S. 284).

   Perhaps it was identical with the palace of the principality (of Wales) in the Old Jewry, mentioned 1 H. VI. 1423 (Cal. P.R. H. VI. 1422-9, p.64).

   The site is now occupied by offices and chambers.
