First mentioned as early as 1555, the historian John Stow said the house was formerly the dwelling house of John Chichele, Chamberlain of London, 1435-46 but does not say when it came into the hands of the Bakers' Company. Destroyed by fire in 1715 and rebuilt, it was further restored and repaired in 1825. Long, D. (2021). London’s Secret Square Mile. 2nd ed. Cheltenham: The History Press.
