    What was the name of the tavern in which Christopher Marlowe was killed?

    Question #94267. Asked by BaronBatty. (Apr 03 08 8:34 AM)

    		Marlowe had spent all day in a house (not a tavern, as is widely claimed, even in some biographies) in Deptford, owned by the widow Eleanor Bull, along with three men, Ingram Frizer, Nicholas Skeres and Robert Poley.

    Instead, he was killed by Ingram Frizer, with a daggar-blow to the head, in Eleanor Bull’s house.

    The alternate theory does state: "A tavern in the London suburb of Deptford."
