Paternoster Row was for many years sacred to publishers.
The Old Chapter, 49 & 50 Paternoster row by 1891 although it is still listed as the Chapter Coffee House, Paternoster row as late as 1874.
There is mention of the coffee house by Charlotte Bronte in her trips to LOndon in the 1840s.If you visit the Layers of London site, Paternoster row is just north of St Pauls Cathedral, and the Chapter House can be seen.
