One correction Eliz Cromwell Claypool died in Hampton Court where she was living with her father. Her mother I believe is buried in St Andrews. The church was referred to as the church of the two widows, in ref. to Mrs. Cromwell. Not sure her stone is still there. She left London after Oliver Cromwell died and went to live with her son-in-law in the manor house where she died.
Gray's Inn is another site in London, it looks lovely and very interesting. It is one of Inns of Court, . Its a law school and some of the Claypool's went there. More of a social club in their day. Shakespeare also staged some of his early works there. Address and info on Grey's Inn http://www.smoothhound.co.uk/tourism/london/inns-of-court.html
Have a nice trip, envy you and take lots of pics.

Dear Linda,
Barbara has already given info on pictures, but if I was going to
London I would visit the Claypoole Manor. It is located 85 miles north of
London, It was built in 1340. This is the home that Elizabeth (Cromwell)
Claypool died in. James Claypoole purchased it in 1572.
Also in North Borough is St Andrews church and the Claypool Chapel. It
is engraved with the family coat of arms. Many Claypool descendants are
buried there.
Let us know how your trip went. Brenda
The address is on line as well as the painting for Eliz. Cromwell Claypool,
http://www.npg.org.uk/live/search/ She is buried in Westminister, Henry VII chapel. I think its just a small marker that was discovered a long time ago.
James & Helena lived, "by London Stone". Directions he gave visitors, turn off Cannon St, walk down hill along bush Lane and turn right into Scots Yard, his was the second house from the corner. The area is still there I forgot what it is now. The bombing in London destroyed some of the area, and I think there is a railroad station near by but can't promise it. I will send through a site later that may give a better description of it, the site isn't under the server and I don't know whether I can find it.

Dear Vanessa,
I was just going through old e-mails and saw the one concerning the
Claypools. I'll be in London next week and wonder if there are any places I
should go to see Claypool memorabilia.
Warmest Regards,
Linda Clark
Dear Brenda,
Looking back through old e-mails I saw one saying the Natl Portrait
Gallery in London has one of John and Elizabeth Claypool. Any idea of where
to look? I'll be in London next week.
Warmest Regards,
Linda Clark
