The Master had a very busy Charter weekend entertaining our London friends and was delighted to be invited to lunch with both the Girdlers and the Saddlers at their Halls in London.

He attended the Induction and Institution of Revd Canon Anthony Howe at St James Garlickhythe, London.   Although Fr. Anthony is a personal friend, he was invited to attend as Master.

He and the Clerk enjoyed the Richmond Fellmongers St George’s Day Service and Supper, and he attended the Leather Lecture at York College, which replaced the Cordwainers prize this year.

Whilst in London, the Master sought the Cordwainer statue in the City of London, which was erected in 2002 by the Cordwainers Ward Club.
