Goldsmiths' Hall

The Worshipful Society of Goldsmiths has had a hall here since 1339; the present hall designed by Philip Hardwick opened in 1835. The Society trains jewellers and silversmiths. It carries out hallmarking and assay on all precious metals. "Hall" in the word hallmark refers to Goldsmiths' Hall.
