Exeter Goldsmiths' Guild
Trans. Devon. Assoc. vol. 44 (1912) pp. 438-479.
by
Revd. J.F. Chanter
Prepared by Michael Steer
An association of Goldsmiths and Silversmiths existed in Exeter long before the reign of Elizabeth I. It is recorded that John de Wewlingworth, a goldsmith, flourished there in the 14th century. The City had an Assay Office or Hall in those far-off days. Its lengthy list of moneyers can be traced to the time of King Athelstan. Strangely, the Guild of Goldsmiths does not seem to have been incorporated until the 17th century. This paper, read at the Association's July 1912 Exeter meeting presents the history of the Guild.
