Description of institution: According to Riley, there "were several similarly named establishments existing in the Fleet Street area in the early eighteenth century," but "[i]t is more than likely ... that the venue was in Devereux Court, near the Fleet Street end of the Strand, because Sloane used this address as a poste restante, as did Dr Richard Myddleton Massey (c.1678–1743) when he visited London in 1704" (93).
