Inns of Court pt.2

It has been pointed out to me that there are actually 4 Inns of Court – Middle, Inner, Lincoln and Greys.  However, in my defence, I’d like to point out that Inner is inside Middle, or possibly Middle is inside Inner, or maybe they are both in Temple – oh yes, there’s a Temple, but is it a Court?  – (no being my preferred answer of choice) and so it goes.  There a surprisingly amount of mysticism related to the Inns of Court, particularly Middle/Inner, involving ancient ancient churches, burial sites and quite possibly a heady dose of paganism.  There’s also a lot of law happening, and it was, curiously enough, a lawyer who pointed out my mistake.  However, I do not yet know the secret handshake of revelation, so will have to get back to you on that one…
