Popular misconception is that the street is named after the Weevils that infested ships biscuits (which were made in Royal Clarence Yard). In fact Thomas Grant the guy who invented the industrialised process for making them, had our house made for him by The Admiralty. It was actually named after Weevil House which stood close to our house in the 18th Century, and which The Admiralty bought together with it's land to create the brewery, victualling and armaments yards....
