Past Masters
Our Past Masters in reverse chronological order
Our Livery Year runs October to October, with our Installation Ceremony usually falling on the third Thursday of the month — followed by a traditional Livery Supper to celebrate the start of the new master's year.
The Guild was first formed in 1992; the Foundation Dinner, at which our Founding Master David Miller was formally installed, was actually held in 1993.
