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." Inn does not mean 'Pub' here. The Inns were the town residences of Noblemen or Bishops and Inn means somewhere where you live. There were also Inns at Oxford, being similar to Halls, which also provided accommodation and teaching for the university. So 'ing' would not be appropriate here. Nor did the Inns of Court ever exercise government functions.
