Tuckers Hall, dating back to AD 1471, is more than just an architectural marvel; it's a living testament to Exeter's illustrious textile and tailoring legacy. Originally established as a chapel, it later became the hub for the Guild of Weavers, Fullers, and Shearman. Its beautifully preserved 15th-century timberwork and Jacobean panelling serve as a tangible link to the past, connecting generations of craftsmen and enthusiasts.
