    The Painted Hall
    The Livery Halls of the City of London
    • The Livery Companies of London have significantly influenced the city's commercial, social, and political landscape for over 600 years. Originally formed to regulate trades, these associations evolved into notable architectural landmarks known as Livery Halls. This book delves into the history and architectural significance of these halls, tracing their development from medieval townhouses to their current forms. With insights into the evolution of notable halls like the Clothworkers' and Salters' Halls, it highlights a rich yet underexplored aspect of London's heritage.
