What is recorded here

This green commemorative plaque records: Marriott's Warehouse By 1440 this site was a quay known as Pygot's Stand. Although the building includes some 14th century stone, it was probably built c.1570 for coal and corn merchant Thomas Claiborne. Marriott was a corn merchant here by 1845.

Thomas Claiborne was a prominent coal and corn merchant in the 16th century; his commercial activities contributed significantly to the economic development of London's riverside trade during the Elizabethan era.
