Abstract: |
MOLA were commissioned by the City of London Corporation to investigate and record some standing masonry within the Phene Neal Room of the Guildhall, Guildhall Yard, City of London, EC2V. The investigation took place in February 2013. The clunch and Kentish ragstone and masonry was part of a garderobe, vaulted soakaway and cesspit adjacent to the south-east stair turret foundations. The features date from the rebuilding of the Guildhall by John Croxtone between 1411-29. The garderobe was accessed via an intra-mural door and stair in the south jamb of the East Crypt and would have served this space when it was in use as a banqueting suite. Later an access was made directly from the hall above. The garderobe remained in use until probably the 19th century when the space became a corridor access between the Guildhall and the Library and Museum. |
