London Inn of the Bishop of St Asaph.

Gatehouse Comments

Payne lists this and writes location unknown, but Emery writes the see did not have a London house. The records for London are good and it does seem unlikely that an Inn of the bishop would be unidentified. St Asaph was an impoverished see and possibly could not afford even a modest London house. Presumably when the bishop was in London he either rented or lodged with a fellow cleric.
