"The Whityngton Stone", 1854. Memorial to Richard Whittington in Islington, London, inscribed: Whityngton Stone. Sir R. Whityngton, thrice Lord Mayor of London. 1397, Richard II; 1406, Henry IV; 1420, Henry V; Sheriff, 1393'. A previous stone had been removed: "I have to ask you, on the present occasion, to record the removal of the Whittington Stone on Highgate Hill. I discovered it as I strolled up the Hill a few days since. I was informed that it was removed about a fortnight since, and a public-house is now being built where it stood". It was then ascertained that the Stone had been taken to a mason's yard, for the purpose of reparation...the above Stone, is, at least, the third of the Stones which have successively stood upon the spot long since the days of Whittington'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
