Барбикан
The Cripplegate area was heavily damaged during World War II. When the Barbican Estate and Barbican Centre were reconstructed after the war, the section of Whitecross Street south of Silk Street was swallowed up by the new construction. The short section between Silk Street and Chiswell Street/Beech Street became part of Silk Street. St Giles Cripplegate, mentioned by Strype, is now within the Barbican Estate.
