Unique London - Part 1

I have just been doing some investigating into what to do in London over the weekend.  I have now lived in central London for over 4 years, have done most of the typical typical tourist things but feel I am missing out on some of the slightly less obvious attractions.  Here are some things that have inspired me during my investigations that I am eager to visit:

1.  Speakers' Corner - situated in the North East corner of Hyde Park anyone can bring a soap box, pitch up and speak on any subject they like.  I am excited to go and hear some speakers, before maybe one weekend turning up to speak!

2.  Postman's Park - located near St Paul's Cathedral, this walled garden is home to over 100 plaques in memorial to people who lost their lives whilst trying to save another.  Looking forward to feeling humbled as I read these amazing tales of heroism.

3.  Monument - Climb the monument to the Great Fire of London - it is over 62 metres tall and marks the place where the Great Fire of London started in 1666.  What an interesting perspective of London you would get from the top of this historic landmark, that is now towered over by the likes of the Shard, the Gherkin, Tower 42 and Heron Towers.

More to follow later....
