Sir Paul Pindar's House, Bishopsgate Street

Nearly opposite to Widegate Street in Bishopsgate Street, are the remains of the residence of Sir Paul Pindar, a liquor shop in Regency times. Sir Paul was a rich merchant in the seventeenth century, "ruined by his conscientious attachment to Charles I". The front of the house had been "strangely metamorphosed, being stuccoed, coloured, etc."
