Old Tower Without

Old Tower Without was outside the jurisdiction of either the City of London or the County of Middlesex, and was within the Liberty of the Tower which had separate county administration and court of quarter sessions.

It was within the bills of mortality area but did not give returns of burials and baptisms.

This was later interpreted to mean it included the extra-parochial place of Great Tower Hill.

[2] In 1889 it became part of the County of London and the Liberty of the Tower was dissolved in 1894.

The parish of Old Tower Without was abolished in 1895 and became part of St Botolph without Aldgate.
