Guide to the Inns of Court

Comment

Why should a pub or inn be regarded as a place to make laws or to that profession. I have read somewhere years ago that 'ings' were historically places of council, not specifically of Noblemen. i.e. It could be villagers decide to build a bridge, improve a road or earthwork or arrannge war defences etc. Places like Nottingham derived the name from Snott's town of Council. Thus :- It should really be ' Ings of Court'
