Histórico
The Coal Meters' Committee was based at Coal Exchange, Lower Thames Street. Founded in 1832, it consisted of representatives of the Coal Factors' Society and of retail buyers of coal. It succeeded the coal meters appointed by the Corporation of London when they were abolished in 1831.
A meter was responsible for seeing that commodities such as grain and coal were traded according to the proper measure.
