Matilda Penne

Matilda Penne (died 1393), was an English businessperson of the fourteenth century, whose will survives.[1]

She inherited a skinning business from her late spouse, who died in 1379.[2] She belonged to the elite of her craft and was described as one of the most prominent skinners in the city of London.[3] She enjoyed great respect among her colleagues, who referred apprentices to her, and she is registered to have educated many student skinners in her trade.[4] She is one of few women skinners of the period of whom there are any significant amount of information. She left money to several churches and religious institutions.[5]
