Chaucer House

[Barry Goldwater]

The royal bureaucrat, wordsmith and diplomat Geoffrey Chaucer lives in a house in London's Vintry ward, near the hall of the Worshipful Guild of Vintners where his father and ancestors worked. While not quite a luxurious palace like Gaunt's Savoy, Chaucer's home is cozy and his income & royal patronage are sufficient to provide his family with a comfortable lifestyle by the standards of a wealthy merchant - but then, can anything less be expected of someone who has to provide for the sister of the currently second-most (and, normally, most) powerful English magnate's mistress?
