About

Cordwainer is a compact ward in the City of London, centred on the historic street of Bow Lane. Its narrow, winding alleys follow medieval routes, with much of the area dedicated to modern office space serving the financial and legal sectors. The ward is dominated by commercial activity during weekdays, containing several livery company halls for trades like the Cordwainers and Fruiterers.

A key feature is the Church of St Mary Aldermary, rebuilt after the Great Fire with an unusual Gothic interior in the Wren style. The area's layout preserves the footprint of the lost St John the Baptist upon Walbrook church, now a garden. Cordwainer's southern boundary is defined by the busy thoroughfare of Queen Victoria Street, marking a clear edge to its quiet, introspective network of lanes.
