GRAY'S INN SQUARE
Gray's Inn Square is a charming example of late seventeenth -century architecture, although seven of the fourteen houses are replicas of ones that were destroyed in the war. The south side is made up of the chapel, garnished with its little cupola and clock, and the sedate buttressed hall. There is an entrance gate on the east from Gray's Inn Road over the arch of which is the Pegasus, a gift from Inner Temple, in recognition of the ancient amity between the two Inns, another example of which is to be seen on the entrance gates to the Walks. Hereabouts was the original manor of the de Greys, The best preserved house in the Square is No.1, and its interior contains fine wood panelling of 1684.
