This fireball-topped column is a Christopher Wren designed monument to the Great Fire of London of 1666. Now owned and maintained by the Corporation of London, for a small admission fee you can climb the 303 steps of the internal staircase to the small, caged-in viewing platform at the top. The height marks the distance of the monument from the spot where the fire started.
Admission: children under 16, 50p, adults, £1.50. |
