"being recognised by law as local authorities"
The Inns of Court are recognised as local authorities in the same sense as, say, Tower Hamlets? Marnanel 19:53, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
Is it fair to say that the Inns of Court are privately run organizations (i.e. with no government interference)? And is the task of recognizing who may and may not practice as a barrister in government courts is managed by private individuals? -John, April 11, 2006.
Apart from the four that exist today, there seem to be at least 8 other Inns on the article on Inns of Chancery. I am no expert, but shouldn't the last section of this article be expanded to include the others that it does not presently mention? Legis 17:02, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Any chance of some information (preferably detailed) on the call to the bar ceremonies? Jachin 01:52, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
I have made some changes to this page. The entries for each of the four Inns of Court ( Gray's Inn, Inner Temple, Lincoln's Inn and Middle Temple) are also in need of a mixture of pruning and expansion. Quite aside from the points raised by other contributors above, a number of aspects require attention.
I shall try to look at each in turn when time allows. (I am a member of Lincoln's Inn and practise from Chambers in the Inner Temple, so hope that I have at least the basic qualification for the task). Informed Owl ( talk) 19:57, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Informed Owl
Is there some difference between the four Inns? Can you choose which one you join? Are there different cultures or something? I think this needs to be explained. -- AW ( talk) 21:24, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
What is the connection to the Inns of Court armoured recce regiment in the Second World War ? Thank you! -- W. B. Wilson ( talk) 10:24, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Category:Bar of England and Wales is itself a category within Category:English law. — Robert Greer ( talk) 02:03, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Doesn't the Gray's article suggest they have official records back to 1391, so this seems to be a disagreement between the two articles. -- 86.129.7.162 ( talk) 01:01, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
Actually all of the other three have notes about tracing some form of records back to 14th century. 209.180.241.183 ( talk) 12:43, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
All of the Inns of Court are based in London, yet to be a barrister in England/Wales, you have to be a member? What if you live in and practice in, say Manchester? Do you still have to come down to London? Do the Inns have local branches? Or is the legal system in England very London-centric? I'm sure there are very simple answers here, but as an American, none of this was remotely obvious to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.225.89.166 ( talk) 01:13, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
Is confusing. Consider changing to:
<tab>or less preferably:
"The Inns still retain the sole right to call qualified students to the bar." What does this mean? kcylsnavS{ screech harrass} 20:08, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

I don't think there were ever more than four Inns of Court, unless you count Serjeants Inn. The other former inns were actually Inns of Chancery, which trained solicitors. Richard75 ( talk) 12:42, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
