View of the east elevation of Girdlers' Hall in Basinghall Street, City of London, looking south from the Hall's garden. The Hall's tall arched windows and the adjacent single-storey building with a roof terrace edged by stone Roman balustrading, are visible across the central flower bed, planted with shrubs and a mulberry tree, of the snow-covered enclosed garden, with, possibly, Dunedin House on Basinghall Avenue, behind. The original fifteenth-century building was destroyed during the Great Fire, rebuilt c1681, before being destroyed again by bombing during World War II and finally rebuilt and completed 1961, subsequently undergoing extensive refurbishment c2008. The building is the headquarters of the Girdlers' Company, standing twenty-third in order of precedence of the City's Livery Companies, and houses a number of valuable Company artifacts, administers grants with its principal charities, maintains links with the Irish Guards, and provides a venue for celebratory and corporate events.
