THE WORSHIPFUL COMPANY of PLUMBERS

Ordinances 1365

Grant of Arms 1588

BETWEEN HERE AND THE RIVER ONCE WAS CHEQUER YARD

WHERE FOR CENTURIES STOOD THE HALL OF THE MYSTERIE OR

ART OF THE PLUMBERS OF LONDON. THE FIRST WAS DESTROYED

IN THE GREAT FIRE OF 1666. REBUILT, IT CONTINUED IN USE

UNTIL DEMOLISHED TO MAKE WAY FOR THE RAILWAY IN 1863

The Company yet flourishes root and branch

IN GOD IS ALL OUR HOPE
