Court Room
The Company is governed by a ‘Court’ comprising a Master, two Wardens and twenty seven Assistants, who hold monthly meetings in this room – hence the name.
A wonderful bright room, carpeted and with rococo ornamentation in gold adorning the walls, it is dominated by an 18th century carved mantelpiece, saved from war damage. It also holds the Company’s Royal Charter. Although the original Charter, granted in 1557 ,was lost during the Civil War period the Company possesses an exemplification (copy) dated 1684 by Charles II.
The Court room is popular for smaller meetings, receptions and as a lunch area for larger events taking place in the Hall.
It overlooks the garden and connected by a small balcony and wrought iron staircase. Both areas are particularly popular during the summer months.
We do not allow dancing in the Court room.
