^{page 252 note 1} Park, , History of Hampstead, p. 9Google Scholar: his authority, Dr. Gale, (Antonini Iter Britanniarum(1709), p. 64Google Scholar), says by way of comment that the military road from Brockley Hill divided into two branches below Hampstead; one entered London by Portpool and was seen clearly enough at Holborn Bridge when the Fleet channel was cleaned and widened after the Fire of 1666: it went by Watling Street (in the City) to its terminus at London Stone. The other branch ran to the west of Westminster, across the Thames and through the heart of Kent (quoting Higden but reversing his order). But Gale's reasons are insufficient. The Roman road was again seen at Holborn Bridge in 1750, and was required to continue the two roads from the east that joined at that point, but does not by any means indicate that there was a road through Portpool.

^{page 257 note 4} A minor point of some interest is the identity of Ealsegate, which Stow (Kingsford, i, 33 and ii, 274-5) took to be Cripplegate, but which Mr. W, H. Stevenson regards as Aldgate (English Historical Revieiv, xii, 491)Google Scholar. The original source, dating about 1095, is Memorials of St. Edmund's Abbey (Rolls Series, edited by Arnold, Thos.), and the editorial note on vol. i, p. 43Google Scholar is delightfully ambiguous: ‘Coming to London from Essex Egelwin would naturally enter the City by the eastern gate Aldgate.’ Did the case in question come under the rule, or was it an exception ? Another account of Egelwin's journey with Edmund's, St. body (Memorials, i, 121)Google Scholar mentions a miraculous crossing of the Lea by means of a broken bridge at Stratford. In that case Aldgate would have been the obvious gate of entry, and another legend gives Algate ( Horstman, , Nova Legenda Anglie, ii, 598Google Scholar), yet Stow and Lydgate say Cripplegate. Lives of the saints are not scientific history, and contradictions may be expected; but on the theorj’ of a Roman road all the way from Bury to London, Cripplegate would have been on the direct line. On the return journey a halt was made at Greenstead, the famous wooden church standing close to the line in question.
