LEADENHALL MARKET
In the 16th century, this area functioned as a massive multi-purpose marketplace. Alongside poultry and leather, traders sold dried herbs, sugar, and medicinal spices shipped globally.
Elizabethan herbalist John Gerard, author of the 1597 landmark publication The Herball, who actually lived in Holborn, knew the Lime Street/Leadenhall area. The community of highly educated physicians and botanists in the Lime Street vicinity considered him an outsider, noting his lack of formal academic training.

THE CHEESEGRATER
The building's famous 10-degree inward tilt was mandated by London planners. It was specifically designed to preserve the protected visual sightline of St Paul's Cathedral's dome when viewed from Fleet Street.
Instead of a traditional concrete center, the building stays standing using an external steel "Megaframe". This completely hollowed-out center allows for massive, uninterrupted office floorplates.
ST. ANDREW’s UNDERSHAFT Church
A particularly lofty specimen of MAYPOLE would go up here, next to St Andrew's church (each May). The pole was so tall, that it outstretched the church, which became known as St Andrew-under-shaft.

MEMORIAL to the UNKNOWN ROMAN GIRL
Prior to every development in Central London MOLA gets the opportunity for archaeological investigations. Here in 1995 they found, among other Roman remains, the skeleton of a young Roman girl who had been buried over 1600 years ago. The remains were taken to the Museum of London while the Swiss Re Tower was erected and in 2007, 12 years later, were reburied at the original site.
