Inns of Court, are colleges in London, for the study of the laws of England, with all conveniences for the lodging and entertainment of the professors and students.
The four principal inns of court are the Inner temple, Middle-temple, Lincoln's inn, and Gray's inn; the other inns are the two serjeant's inns; and the others, which are less considerable, are Clifford's inn, Symond's inn, Clement's inn, Lion's inn, Furnival's inn, Staple's inn, Thavie's inn, Barnard's inn, and New-inn. These are mostly taken up by attorneys, solicitors, &c., but they belong to the inns of court, who send yearly some of their barristers to read to them.
