Gerrard’s Hall, on the south side of Basing lane, a large and very old house built upon stone arches, supported by sixteen pillars, called Gerard’s Hall from a giant of that name, which it is ridiculously supposed lived there. In the high roofed hall stood for some time a large fir pole, which it is pretended Gerard the giant used to run with in the wars, and a ladder of the same length, said to be made in order to ascend to the top of the staff. Stow justly supposes that these circumstances are fabulous, and observes that John Gisors, Mayor of London, was the owner of this edifice in the year 1245, and that it was a long time possessed by others of the same name and family; whence he with great probability concludes, that Gisor’s Hall was by corruption called Gerard’s Hall.
