I have always found the Temple insuperably confusing, apart from the tube station. Where does the Inner Temple become the Middle Temple ? Who has chambers where and what is their pecking order ? How much of it is original (not much) and how much postwar reconstruction ? But now that I have to go back and forth between Blackfriars and Piccadilly several times a week, I am gradually learning my way around. The bit I like best is King’s Bench Walk which at least looks original, not a neo-Georgian pastiche. No. 4 is said to be by Wren (do I believe this ?) and was built after the fire of 1677 (no, that is not a misprint):-
Thank you, Charles. I too have always been unsure about what is what in The Temple. I’m grateful once again for your Blog.
