The earliest reference to Parker Street (formerly Parker’s
Lane) so far discovered, belongs to February,[143] 1620, when mention
was made of “a way or passage of twenty feet broad, lately marked
out by the said Walter Burton, leading from Drury Lane to and
through the ground of the said Sir Charles Cornwallis, knight,
towards Holborn.”[144] The “marking out” of Parker Street took place
therefore between July, 1615, and February, 1620. There seems great
probability that the street owed its name, as suggested by Parton,[145]
to Philip Parker, who certainly had a share in building the houses
there.[146] That he actually held ground in the neighbourhood of
Parker Street is evident from the terms of Burton’s lease to Edlyn of
1620, when, in granting his own interest in the land on the south side
of Parker Street for a space of 520 feet westwards from the Rose
Field boundary, he adds: “and the said Thomas Burton grants to
Edmund Edlyn all the interest, right, claim or demand which he hath
or ought to have in and to that piece of ground holden by Philip
Parker.” In the Subsidy Rolls for 1620–21 and 1618–9, Philip Parker
is shown as residing in Drury Lane, perhaps the house (the third on
the east side, north of Parker Street) where William Parker was living
in 1646.[147]
