About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In Pinsent Masons law firm, a delivery driver once asked curiously: ‘Why does that old guy always sit in the same chair, staring out the window?’ ‘Oh,’ replied the receptionist with a knowing smile, ‘he’s just waiting for his virtual appointment with Lady Justice.’ The delivery driver shrugged and moved on, never realizing he’d stumbled upon one of London’s most enduring legal urban legends.
2. In Pinsent Masons office building, a delivery driver once asked curiously: ‘Why do people keep whispering when I leave?’ It turned out that every time he left, someone would notice his lunchbox emblazoned with the words ‘Senior Partner’ in glittering gold letters. From then on, whenever anyone saw him depart, they’d discreetly point it out—leaving our delivery driver feeling rather like an oversized toy in a grown-up world.
3. In Pinsent Masons' quiet hallway, an intern nervously adjusted her glasses and whispered into her phone: 'I just saw someone disappear behind that door… but it wasn’t even open!' Suddenly, the door creaked open a fraction, revealing only a pair of shoes. The intern jumped back, then giggled at herself. ‘Probably just a delivery driver,’ she muttered, walking away. Later that day, while filing papers, she heard a soft tap on her desk. Turning around, she found a note: “Next time knock.”
4. In Pinsent Masons’ parking garage, a night security guard heard something peculiar late one Monday night—a faint, echoing sound of someone humming 'Happy Birthday.' He looked around but saw no one. Curious, he switched on his flashlight and scanned the empty aisles. Then, from behind a nearby column, came another soft melody—this time, ‘Silent Night.’ The guard shrugged it off as an odd prank until, over the next few nights, different voices sang familiar tunes in perfect harmony. By Friday morning, the entire office was buzzing with speculation when finally, a delivery driver confessed: he’d been practicing for his upcoming karaoke night.
