Boundaries
As with most of the City's 25 wards, the boundaries of Bread Street were altered quite considerably in 2003, having remained almost unchanged for centuries. The ward is now bounded on the north by the ward of Cheap; on the east by Cordwainer; on the south by Queenhithe and Vintry; and on the west by Castle Baynard and Farringdon Within. Its street boundaries are Bread Street in the east; Newgate Street and Cheapside in the north; Warwick Lane and Ave Maria Lane in the west; and Queen Victoria Street to the south.
St Paul's Cathedral is outside the ward boundaries, being in Castle Baynard ward, but the St Paul's Cathedral School, situated between the cathedral and New Change, is in the ward.
