Origin: From a proper name. Etymon: proper name Pickt-hatch.
Etymology: < Pickt-hatch, the former name of a district of London.The district is located by E. H. Sugden Topogr. Dict. Wks. Shakespeare(1925) ‘on the E. side of Goswell Rd., just S. of Old St. opposite the wall of the Charterhouse’ (compare quot. 1598), and was probably named from an original bawdy house with a picked hatch ( < picked adj.2 + hatch n.1; compare quots. 1607, 1832). In the 16th and 17th centuries the district was renowned as a haunt of prostitutes; compare:1597 in J. C. Jeaffreson Middlesex County Rec. (1886) I. 234 At Pickthatche..for six months..Elizabeth Hollande kept a common brothel.1598 Bridewell Court Minute Bk. IV. f. 11v Luce Morgaine sent into this house by vertue aforesaid saieth that she lyeth at the house of Edward Tilsley and keeped the saime at Picket hatch Att the upper end of Aldersgate.1607 E. Sharpham Cupids Whirligig sig. G1v Set some pickes vppon your hatch, and I pray professe to keepe a Baudy-house.1832 W. Toone Gloss. Pickt hatch, this was a cant word, in the time of Queen Elizabeth, for a part of the town, supposed to be Turnmill Street, Clerkenwell, then noted for houses of ill fame... The term was derived from the hatch or half door, in houses of this description, being guarded with iron spikes, as the houses of sheriffs officers are at this time. Attested earlier as the name of a tenement in a different (but nearby) vicinity:1524 Acts Court Mercers' Co. (1936) 677 A tenement..called the Pycked Hache sett and lying in the Parisshe of seint Martyn called Iremonger lane belongyng unto the maister and brethern of seint Thomas the Martir. The building referred to here was still known by this name up to the time of the Great Fire of London in 1666.
Now historical and rare.
The (former) district of Pickt-hatch in London, considered as a haunt of prostitutes. Hence allusively: any place frequented by prostitutes and their clients; a brothel or stew. Also attributive: of or relating to Pickt-hatch; meretricious, bawdy.
