Site: Innholders' Hall - 2 (1 memorial)

EC4, College Street, 29-30

Seems this site was given to the Innholders in 1920-21 by Cronin and Wylde, then an oil bomb destroyed it on the night of 10th May 1941, and caused some damage to the Innholders Hall next door. The destroyed building was rebuilt by the Innholders after the war and is now part of the Innholders' premises to the extent that number 30 is given as their address.
