Woolsack

The Lords Chamber on 12 April 2021: Lord Fowler sits on the speaker's woolsack, with two other peers on the judges' woolsack in front.

The Woolsack is the seat of the Lord Speaker in the House of Lords, the Upper House of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Before 2006, it was the seat of the Lord Chancellor. Its status in the House was enshrined in the first standing orders in 1621.[1]
