Tacklehouse

The under beadle, Philip Huffa, was to be accommodated with lodgings above the tacklehouse, and the Company's cellars were built in beneath it.

In 1648, the officers commissioned the company's carpenter and bricklayer to design and build a new tacklehouse by the river to assist merchants in unloading ships, a project that cost more than £20.

On the other side of the Atlantic 'tacklehouse' and 'ticket' porters unloaded the ships.
