Worshipful Company of Coopers : ウィキペディア英語版 | Worshipful Company of Coopers right The Worshipful Company of Coopers is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The organisation of coopers existed in 1422; the Company received a royal charter of incorporation in 1501. The cooper trade involved the making of wine, beer, and spirit barrels, but has long since become obsolete; the Livery Company now exists primarily as a charitable foundation. It also supports the Coopers' Company and Coborn School of Upminster, Essex, and Strode's College of Egham, Surrey. Their guild hall was first founded in the Bassishaw City ward in 1522, at The Swan tavern and from 1547 in a purpose-built livery hall. This hall was destroyed by the Great Fire of London in 1666 but subsequently rebuilt on the same site. The guild rebuilt again in 1865, selling a part of the site to the City of London Corporation for the expansion of Guildhall. This hall was destroyed by fire on the night of 29 December 1940. The livery then shared quarters with other Companies until purchasing their current headquarters in Devonshire Square, off Bishopsgate.〔(History of the Coopers ) accessed 25 December 2014〕 The Coopers' Company ranks 36th in the order of precedence of all the Livery Companies. Its motto is ''Love as Brethren''. ==References==
