What’s not to like?

Where to Stay in Monument

There are a number of notable neighbourhoods either side of London Bridge that provide great accommodation within easy walking distance of the surrounding sights and attractions. The City of London is one of the famous financial centres of London, home to such institutions as the Bank of England, Royal Stock Exchange, and St. Paul’s Cathedral. As a result, this area tends to be popular both day and night with tourists and businesspeople, but can be a useful hub to help visitors find their way around the city. South of the river lie the neighbourhoods of London Bridge and Borough, quieter ‘high street’ areas featuring many name brand stores, pubs and restaurants.

For tourists and temporary residents, London can be pretty safe, especially compared to other major capital cities, however travellers are still advised to be aware of pickpockets, particularly in some of the busier pubs and bars. Shoreditch and Whitechapel may be hotspots for this type of crime, though fortunately there is plenty of nightlife closer to home to spare guests from commuting over to these areas.

Facts About Monument

Due to its position right in the heart of the city, the area surrounding Monument naturally benefits from a rich and interesting history, overlapping with many of the stories about wider London. Here then are some of our favourite facts about the area to entice and excite new visitors:

  • As many already know, the area derives its name from the Monument to the Great Fire of London located near the north end of London Bridge and built to celebrate the city that rose from the ashes of 1666. The Monument was however built with a second purpose in mind: its column was once used as a giant zenith telescope, with a tiny laboratory hidden beneath it. Just think, the site could have been used for scientific experiments if the area around it had not grown too busy,
  • There are 311 steps ascending the Monument to the viewing platform, which nearly a quarter of a million visitors climb every year. In fact, everyone who manages to climb it is awarded a certificate to mark the occasion.
  • The nearby City of London is the centre of global foreign exchange dealing. Over 40% of all the world’s transactions are made there for a total of $2.7 trillion every day. Not only this, but the City has more Japanese banks within it than Tokyo, and more American banks than Manhattan!
  • Though the City is the oldest part of London, it does not look its age. This is because it has twice been almost entirely destroyed and rebuilt, once during the Great Fire of London in 1666, and then during the Blitz in the Second World War.
  • Geography (and Greenwich Mean Time) plays a key role in the success of the City of London. Its business day overlaps with those of all the world’s other financial centres, allowing trading with the Eastern Hemisphere in the morning and the Western Hemisphere in the evening. It was also mandatory before 1980 for any bank to have an office within ten minutes’ walk of the Bank of England. This was so that in the event of a crisis, the Governor of the Bank of England could have the Chief Executive of every bank gathered within 30 minutes to work on a solution. Now that’s forward planning!
  • Located across the river from Monument lies a reconstruction of Shakespeare’s famous Globe Theatre, the original of which burned down in 1613 after a special effect went awry. According to local documents, nobody was injured except for a man whose burning trousers were put out with a bottle of beer.

Cost of Living in Monument

A relatively prime location in the centre of London, property prices around Monument do tend to be quite high when compared to some of the further-afield neighbourhoods. The price for a rental apartment can range from £700 to upwards of £2,000 monthly, making serviced accommodation an increasingly viable option for longer term travellers, particularly when taking into account the many benefits TheSqua.re offers to extended residential guests.

Day to day activities meanwhile can vary substantially in price. The cost of dining out of an evening can range from £15 for a meal for one at an inexpensive restaurant, to £55 for a three-course meal for two at a mid-range restaurant. This can be countered however by the relatively low price of local groceries and the fully-equipped kitchens TheSqua.re includes in every apartment. Weekly travel passes (for Zones 1-2) can run to upwards of £35, though there are several discounts available for eligible residents. Finally, there are plenty of entertainment options, including theatres and cinemas, that offer cheaper tickets with select membership schemes.

Places to Visit in Monument

Wondering how to spend that precious day off? Monument and the surrounding area are home to a great range of enjoyable and interesting places to visit, from historic buildings to popular tourist attractions. Here are a few of our favourites:

  • Monument to the Great Fire of London - the attraction from which the area derives its name, this 200-foot tall Doric column is Grade I listed and marks roughly the spot where the Great Fire of London started in Pudding Lane in 1666. A viewing platform near the top also commands stunning views of the local area.
  • St Paul’s Cathedral - one of the most famous sights in London, this Grade I listed building is the official seat of the Bishop of London and the mother church of the London Diocese. Built on Ludgate Hill at the highest point in the City of London, its iconic roof can be seen from most places in the city.
  • The Shard - dominating London’s skyline, this sheer 95-storey skyscraper is the tallest building in the United Kingdom, and its viewing gallery and open-air observation deck on the 72nd floor command stunning views over the whole city.

 

  • Tower Bridge & Tower of London - two of the most iconic attractions of London, the turreted Tower Bridge crosses the river a little way east of Monument, and was built in the late 19th century as a bascule and suspension bridge. It lies alongside the Tower of London, a historic 11th century fortress that has in the past been used as a prison, armoury and menagerie, and today is the home of the Royal Crown Jewels.

 

 

  • Shakespeare’s Globe - this reconstruction of Shakespeare’s famous Elizabethan-era playhouse is again located on the south bank of the Thames. Built based on approximate estimations of the original, the theatre opened its doors in 1997 with a performance of Henry V, and has a capacity of 1,400.

  • Leadenhall Market - one of the oldest covered markets in London, Leadenhall Market dates back to the 14th century and primarily sells fresh produce, including flowers, meats and cheeses. A great way of stepping back in time, the market is also located in the heart of the City of London, perfect for those lunchtime getaways.

 

  • Sky Garden - close to the City of London, this skyscraper is known as the walkie-talkie due to its unique shape, and features a botanically-decorated restaurant on its top floor.
  • HMS Belfast - now permanently moored by Hay’s Galleria, this former Royal Navy light cruiser is operated by the Imperial War Museum as a floating exhibition and tourist attraction.

Transportation in Monument

London benefits from a world-renowned public transport system, comprising the famous Underground, riverboat services, black cabs, and iconic red buses. Between them, residents are able to traverse the whole city with ease, and major overground terminals, such as Victoria, Waterloo, and Kings Cross, also open up more options for getting out and exploring the wider country. The area around Monument is served by a number of Tube stations: Monument (District and Circle Lines), Bank (Central, Northern and Waterloo & City Lines), Cannon Street (District, Circle and Mainline services), as well as London Fenchurch Street for National Rail routes. These stations are arguably the speediest and most efficient ways of travelling around the city, and Day Travelcards can be bought (accepted through Zones 1-5) for £18.10.

Black cabs and red buses meanwhile are both great ways of sightseeing while commuting, and with 700 bus routes in operation across the city, including 52 night services, travellers can be sure their serviced apartment is just a short journey away. There is nothing quite like sitting on the top deck of a London bus watching the city go by; equally, many of the city’s cab drivers can offer their own unique insights and local knowledge of the various neighbourhoods. Finally, TFL also offers riverboat services along the Thames, which depart from Tower Millennium Pier and consist of six routes (22 stops) running between Putney and Woolwich.

The UK is known for its generally unpredictable weather, and London is no exception. Though generally offering quite a temperate climate, the city can have rather cold winters, with temperatures dropping below freezing during the coldest months, and hot, balmy summers, with temperatures reaching up to thirty and above in July and August. Wet-weather gear is essential packing at all times of year though, as even in the summer months, rain may still be just a cloud away. September is an optimal month for visiting London, as day temperatures are still comfortably warm, while evenings are crisp and cool, allowing visitors to maximise their time away and make the most out of their daily activities.
