Pinners’ Hall
Pinners’ Hall belonged to the Pinners or Pinmakers’ Company, and it
occupie[d] the site of the east end of the Augustine Friars Church(Harben 476). However,
[i]n the [eighteenth] century a portion of it was fitted up with pulpit and pews and used as an Anabaptist Meeting House(Harben 476). The site was demolished in 1798 and is
[n]ow occupied as offices and business houses(Harben 476).
Pinners’ Hall is not to be confused with Plasterers’ Hall, which was formerly known as ‘Pinners Hall’ (Harben 477). Said building was described as ‘Pynners Hall’ in 1556, which was the year it was given to the Plasterers’ Company (Harben 476).
