William Fleetwood, the Recorder of London, writes to Lord Burghley describing the riverside environs of Paris Garden, which were 'the site of some clandestine political meetings between the Bishop of Ross and the French ambassador in 1578' (Ingram, '"Neere the Playhouse,"' p 59). The area is dark and 'shadowed with trees'; thickets of willows offer a 'notable covert for confederattes to shrowd in.'
