HISTORY
We are one of the oldest established sets of barristers' chambers in Lincoln's Inn. Our history is easily traceable since 1893 when Mr. F. Baden Fuller joined us. He was succeeded as Head of Chambers in 1946 by his son Alfred, who retired to become a Commons Commissioner in 1972. Since probably the 1880s we have occupied premises in the range of former Court Buildings, which had been erected in the late 1770s on the Chancery Lane side of Stone Buildings. Until 1998 we occupied what had (until the erection of the Royal Courts of Justice in the early 1880s) comprised the Chancery Enrolments Office and formerly that of the Accountant General at 11 Stone Buildings. We are now in larger and more convenient premises at No. 9, which in that former era constituted the offices of the Chancery Registrar.
In 1999 we were joined by the Chancery practitioners of 3 Paper Buildings (the former Chambers of Isaac Jacob) which had amongst its past members the Honourable Mr. Justice Forbes.
In recent years our chambers have been joined by some notable established practitioners in line with Chambers policy of selective recruitment.
