Lollard

The very first, at Lollard Street in London’s Kennington, is still going strong.

The council gave the go-ahead to the 149-flat development on Lollard Street, Kennington, in 2013, with play areas designed to "maximise their inclusivity".

Tens of thousands of people – ranging from roofers and bakers to millers and parish priests – marched on Blackheath, where the Lollard priest John Ball publicly questioned the class system: "When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?"

"Well, we shall save the credit of the family," replied Richard of Woodville, in a low tone; "for the good priest looks upon my uncle as half a Lollard, because he will not stay in the church and eat till he bursts, in honour of the Blessed Virgin."

Walter, known as the Lollard, was a Hollander, and was the most active and successful of the Beghard missionaries.
