WELCOME TO THE GIRDLERS' COMPANY

Welcome to the website of the Girdlers’ Company, one of the 110 Livery
Companies of the City of London.

The Company, which was involved with the making of girdles (or belts), received
its Letters Patent from Edward III in 1327. While it no longer practises its
craft – although it has the honour of presenting the girdle and stole worn by
the Sovereign at each coronation – it remains a Company closely connected with
the government and Livery Companies of the City of London, the fellowship of its
members and various charitable works.

This website aims to give an introduction to the Company, its history,
organisation and principal activities and relationships. While contact may be
made with the Company via the Clerk, we regret that we are unable to undertake
any historical research but please note that the Company's archives, which are
managed by the London Metropolitan Archives (LMA), are held in the Guildhall
Library. Details of how these can be accessed can be found here.
