Footnotes

  • 1. Built at his own charge by Sir Baptist Hicks, in St. John Street (upon ground given by the King), for the better carrying on of the magisterial duties for Middlesex. It was finished January 13th, 1612, and called Hick's Hall, after its founder. Annexed to the building was a Round House and pillory. From here the miles were measured, northwards. The present Sessions House was built on Clerkenwell Green in 1782, and Hicks's Hall pulled down. The Jacobian chimney-piece from the old Hall was removed to the present building.
