Monument
View from the Monument to the Great Fire of London. The location is North of London Bridge and a couple of hundred feet from where the fire started on the 2nd of September 1666 in Pudding Lane. Tower Bridge is in the distance looking east along the Thames. Although not as tall as the modern towering buildings of glass and concrete it gives a good opportunity to see the city in a more immersive way. I often think very tall towers loose the feeling of connection with the city around you. Well worth a climb up the 311 steps to the top with camera in hand.
