Description
The Nails is a Grade I listed structure located on Corn Street in Bristol. It consists of four baluster stands made of brass, dating from the 16th and 17th centuries. The stands are turned and flat-topped, with the middle two being identical. The eastern stand is late Elizabethan and features no inscription. The stands were gifts from notable individuals: one from Alderman Kitche in 1594, another from Nicholas Crisp in 1625, made by Thomas Hobson, and a third from George White in 1631. Historically, these stands were situated beneath a covered way on the north side of All Saints' Church and were used for settling deals.
