John Stow (c. 1525 – 6 April 1605) was an English historian and antiquarian. The son of Thomas Stow, a tallow-chandler, he was born about 1525 in London, in the parish of St Michael, Cornhill. His father's rent his house and garden from the parish. This mean that Johns childhood covered the block of Finck lane and (Treadneedle) street or rather Three needle streete. In that matter he do not have to look for in MS British Library Cotton Faustina, B. II, f. 80 or 8. He simply describe what he sow and what he know in the Cotton Faustina, B. II, f. 80 or 8.

So the St Benet Fink were build there after 1514; Finkpal (talk) 23:45, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

After all, the first part of the article does not mush all the facts.

''‘St. Benet’ is short for ‘St. Benedict’. … In the case of St. Benet Fink, it is not certain whether the Benedict referred to was St. Benedict of Nursia, the 6th century founder of Western monasticism or Benedict Biscop, the 7th century Anglo-Saxon founder of Jarrow Priory.''

‘Fink’ according to John Stow is derived from Robert Fink, or Finch, Jon Stow does not even mention such word as Finch.

(a 13th century benefactor who paid to have the church rebuilt). Not rebuild but newly build

(Finch) Finck Lane off Threadneedle Street, was named after the same family.

The earliest surviving reference to the church is in a document of 1216, although the discovery of a 10th century wheel-headed cross in its former churchyard suggests a Saxon foundation.
