Page "Kett's Rebellion" Paragraph 23
from
Wikipedia
Warwick managed to enter the city on 24 August by attacking the St Stephen's and Brazen gates.
The rebels retreated through the city, setting fire to houses as they went in an attempt to slow the Royal army's advance.
About 3 pm Warwick's baggage train entered the city.
It managed to get lost and rather than halting in the market place it continued through Tombland and straight down Bishopsgate Street towards the rebel army.
A group of rebels saw the train from Mousehold and ran down into the city to capture it.
Captain Drury led his men in an attempt to recapture the train, which included all the artillery.
He managed to salvage some of the guns in yet another fierce fight around Bishopsgate.
