Before the Dissolution, the church was the chapel of Saint Bartholomew's Hospital, located on the precinct of the hospital and known as The Church of the Holy Cross. In 1521, Richard Arnold's Chronicle called it "The chapell wythin Bartholomew Spitell" (qtd. in Harben). The function and name of the chapel was changed by royal order in 1547, at which point the chapel became the church of "St. Bartholomew the Little" (qtd. in Harben). "Little" was a disambiguator that distinguished the new parish church from the nearby St. Bartholomew the Great.
