Noble Street, Old London Wall




This is part of the old Roman Fort wall which once surrounded
London of old and was destroyed in the Fire of London.
The space is actually quite in contrast to its setting in the
middle of a commercial central London location it is
a slender minature green belt like feature which offers
tranquility and history because it retains its old features
but has long since become a refuge for wildlife to create a
foothold in a concrete jungle.

This landscape would really lack if this quirky little
space wasn't here its slightly overgrown in parts with wildflowers
but I think this is perfect for the use it has charm because it
is off limits and wild but still create a beautiful addition to
the landscape and highlight Londons heritage.
