Start Monument tube station
Finish St Paul’s tube station
We start by getting a lift up to the rooftop of a skyscraper, 120 Fenchurch Street, from where there are spectacular 360 degree views of London. And it’s also the largest public rooftop space in the City, with a lovely garden of 85 wisteria trees, 30 fruit trees and a 200 foot water feature. Back at ground level we poke through ancient alleys full of history before we see tiny parks and gardens including one with a fascinating Shakespeare memorial and a connection to Winston Churchill and America. We then see Roman and medieval ruins that have been allowed to grow into a wild garden, before arriving at beautiful gardens which have within them perhaps the City’s most interesting memorial. Then we see church ruins that have been converted into beautiful gardens with lots of history behind them.
