The Cloath-Workers grew to be
a Company, 22 H. 8. Anno 1530.
Their Arms then Granted by Cla∣rencieux,
Sable a Chevron Ermin
in Chief, two Crabbets Argent in
base, a Beazel, Or, Supporters and
Crest granted by Clareucieux, An∣no
1587.
The other Corporations, besides these Twelve,
enjoy large Privileges by the King's Charter, and
they have fair Halls to meet in, most of which
were consumed in the great Fire, Anno 1666. but
they are since rebuilt for the most part in a very state∣ly
and magnificent manner: The Hall belonging to
the Company of Dyers was a few weeks ago con∣sumed
by an unhappy Fire that happen'd near, as
were also some Houses in Thames-street.
