All the twelve companies of London, and some other companies and private persons, have their granaries at the bridge-house in Southwark (where are a justice of the peace, a steward, and two masters.) These granaries are built on two sides of an oblong; one whereof stands north and south, and is near 100 yards long, whose lettice-windows respect north-east, the other side may be about 50 yards long; the windows look to the north, and the opposite sides have no apertures.
