Later use
[edit]Pastscape, run by English Heritage seems to think the Greyfriars' buildings were reused rather than demolished and underwent extensive remodelling in the late 17th century by Christopher Wren [1]. Nev1 (talk) 13:03, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Early history
[edit]There is a passage in "Queen's Consort" by Lisa Hamilton (p255) that the Grey Friars at church at Newgate was founded by Eleanor of Provence and Henry III second son Edmund, and that the his second wife had introduced the Poor Clares into England.

Completion confusion
[edit]The article currently says that:
Queen Isabella, wife of Edward III (r. 1327–1377), was responsible for completing the work, spending around £700.[4]
The wife of Edward III was Philippa of Hainaut. What Kingford actually says (in [4]) is:
It was apparently not till the reign of Edward III. that Isabella de Valois, "finding the church which Queen Margaret, her aunt, began, not yet finished, spent about it seven hundred pounds and more"
