30. The Medieval Guildhall and Council Chamber

-This building is just along from St Martin-le-Grand off Coney Street and before the Mansion House. It is the part of the 14th century medieval Guildhall that only just escaped complete destruction in the air raid of 1942!

Down by the left side of the Mansion House is the part of the medieval Guildhall. It is the part of the 14th century medieval Guildhall that escaped complete destruction in the air raid of 1942. There has been a Guildhall on this site since 1378 but the building above dates from 1446. The hall was first used for Pageants and Mystery Plays.
