Oat Lane is the home of the Worshipful Company of Pewterers whose hall is pictured.
First mentioned by Leake in 1666,[3][4] it runs from Noble Street[5] to Staining Lane[6] between Gresham Street and London Wall.
The Great Hall of the Worshipful Company of Pewterers stands midway down Oat Lane. The church of St Mary Staining once stood here[7] and a small garden still marks the location of the lost church.[8]
The nearest London Underground station is St. Paul's and the closest mainline railway station is Moorgate.
