Bartholomew (St.) the Less Lane.-Wm. Herewardestoke directed that he should be buried in the Church of St. Bartholomew the Less, and devised to his father a tenement in the Lane of St. Bartholomew the Less, 1366-7 (Ct. H.W. II. 99).

Other references to the lane 1308 and 1348-9 (ib. I.200, 520).

This church must be St. Bartholomew by the Exchange, which was known as "the Less" or "the Little" in early records, and the lane would be Bartholomew Lane (q.v.).
