Hare Court, Inner Temple
Gravel garden.
"The name of this court commemorates Nicholas Hare (d. 1597), one of four bencher brothers, and Treasurer in 1584, who built chambers here; it was previously called the Little Court, or Garden Court, and is perhaps the same as Nut Tree Court, called the 'Nut Garden' in Henry VIII's time. It contained a well, with a pump. The original buildings here were named after various members who paid for their erection - for instance Crompton's Building and Brooker's Building - but after rebuilding in the seventeenth century they were all known by the name of the court itself."
