The Honourable Society of the Inner Temple, commonly known as Inner Temple, is one of the four Inns of Court (professional associations for barristers and judges) in London. To be called to the Bar and practise as a barrister in England and Wales, an individual must belong to one of these Inns. It is located in the wider Temple area of the capital, near the Royal Courts of Justice, and within the City of London.
The Inn is a professional body that provides legal training, selection, and regulation for members. It is ruled by a governing council called "Parliament", made up of the Masters of the Bench (or "Benchers"), and led by the Treasurer, who is elected to serve a one-year term. The Temple takes its name from the Knights Templar, who originally leased the land to the Temple's inhabitants (Templars) until their abolition in 1312. The Inner Temple was a distinct society from at least 1388, although as with all the Inns of Court its precise date of founding is not known. After a disruptive early period (during which the Temple was almost entirely destroyed in the Peasants' Revolt) it flourished, becoming the second largest Inn during the Elizabethan period (after Gray's Inn).
The Inner Temple expanded during the reigns of James I and Charles I, with 1,700 students admitted between 1600 and 1640. The First English Civil War's outbreak led to a complete suspension of legal education,[1] with the Inns close to being shut down for almost four years. Following the English Restoration the Inner Templars welcomed Charles II back to London personally with a lavish banquet.
After a period of slow decline in the 18th century, the following 100 years saw a restoration of the Temple's fortunes, with buildings constructed or restored, such as the Hall and the Library. Much of this work was destroyed during The Blitz, when the Hall, Temple, Temple Church, and many sets of chambers were devastated. Rebuilding was completed in 1959, and today the Temple is a flourishing and active Inn of Court, with over 8,000 members.
The original Inner Temple Hall is the Hall or refectory of the original Knights Templar building on the site, and has been dated to the 8th century. It was extensively repaired in 1606 and 1629, but was still in poor condition in 1816. Despite this, little was done at that time but replacing the timbers which had gone rotten and patching the crumbling walls with brick.[65] As a result of the poor condition and the increasing numbers of barristers, it was demolished in 1868.[66]
Its replacement was a larger hall in the Gothic style, designed by Sydney Smirke, which was opened on 14 May 1870 by Princess Louise. The new Hall was 94 feet long, 41 feet wide and 40 feet high, with glass windows featuring the coats of arms of noted Treasurers from 1506 onwards running around the room.[67] There were two doors, one to the south and one to the north, which are said by William Dugdale to be the remnants of a "great carved screen" erected in 1574.[68]

The Hall was destroyed during the Second World War, and the foundation stone for the new hall was laid by Queen Elizabeth in 1952.[47] The building was designed by Hubert Worthington and opened in 1955 as part of a complex involving the Hall, Library and Benchers' Chambers.
I'm technically here for work, but the truth is that everyone is so friendly that it is much more like a vacation. I keep telling myself that I will take a day off from the outrageous eating and drinking that is typical here, but it is much easier said than done. Horses near Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China.

When the silence beckons,
And the day draws to a close,
When the light of your life sighs,
And love dies in your eyes,
Only then will I realise,
What you mean to me.

HDR photograph depicting the style of inner city living in an old residential area at the Rocks in Sydney city. It was the colorful washing on the line that caught my eye!
My inner spirit hungers
it passionately yearns for
that which might bring
peace to my immortal soul
Not pleasures of the flesh
instead the gifts so timeless
they transcend the earthly
limits of human history
A heart so giving it provides
an endless capacity to serve
in ways that help the world
and glorify God's name
A strength so near to Him
that it allows me to complete
my tasks and transforms all
triumphs into lasting victories
A need so universal that
through my life I shall
express a love for humanity
and all creation's gifts
My inner spirit hungers
and as I seek to nurture it
I pray I'm give that which
nourishes me best

Some of the more famous Tower prisoners were executed within the Inner Ward of the Tower. There were fewer spectators here, on Tower Green, than for those executions held just north of the Tower on Tower Hill, but there could still be a couple hundred people viewing the "private" execution. Lower-class prisoners who were executed at Tower Hill were usually hanged; beheading was reserved for higher-class or high-profile prisoners. The seven on this sign were all beheaded for treason.
The last person executed at the Tower was Josef Jakobs, a German spy, in 1941 by firing squad.
