The Town Clerk of London is an important position that has existed since the 13th century in the City of London, England. Originally the role was to take the minutes of London council meetings, but over the years the holder's role has gathered responsibility, including staff and executive powers. Historically the incumbent received an annual fee of £10.[1] This has risen to £244,000 in 2016/17, with 55% coming from the City Fund[2] and 40% coming from the City's Cash.[3]
