Tour of Vintners' Hall

The Vintners' Company with its first Charter in 1363 is one of the Twelve Great Livery Companies of the City of London. With its origins steeped in the history of the City, and the import, regulation and sale of wine, the Company continues to maintain strong links with the UK Wine Trade, with Vintners' Hall known as the Trade's "spiritual home".

The current Vintners' Hall was built in the 1670s after the Great Fire destroyed the medieval building. It has undergone various modifications over the centuries according to need and fashion and was one of the lucky few livery halls which only suffered superficial damage during the Blitz.

Our tour is led by fellow London Historian and Vinters' Company Member Guy Fairbank.

Tea, coffee and biscuits will be served at this event.
