Off Fetter Lane, Crane Court is an L shaped thoroughfare that leads to Fleet Street. It was razed and then rebuilt in the Great Fire of 1666. It is named after a pub that stood here- The Two Cranes. It was here that the Royal Society met from 1710 until 1780. Long, D. (2021). London’s Secret Square Mile. 2nd ed. Cheltenham: The History Press.
