Inns of Court and City Yeomanry

Inns Of Court And City Yeomanry

The Inns of Court & City Yeomanry is the modern incarnation of one of London's oldest military institutions, with the earliest surviving accounts of a militia from the Inns dating back to the Peasants' Revolt in 1381. Today the organisation is arranged into four active but united parts:

  • The Signal Squadron
  • The Royal Yeomanry Band
  • The Army Cadet Force Squadron
  • The detached IC&CY Officership

The largest, the Signal Squadron, acts as a Close Support Squadron within 71st (City of London) Yeomanry Signal Regiment (Volunteers), itself a key part of the Royal Corps of Signals within the British Territorial Army (TA).
