Whilst we normally speak about buildings with great heritage and history that have been transformed to provide premium office space for the modern world, we thought that we should make an exception for The Shard. Clearly a modern development, The Shard stands dominantly in the historically significant London Bridge district on the southern bank of the Thames. Opened to the public in 2013, The Shard was recognised as the tallest building in the UK and Europe and as a new emblem for London. Today, the

The Royal Exchange in the City of London was founded in the 16th century, in 1565, by the merchant Sir Thomas Gresham to act as a centre of commerce for the City.

Its modern name is believed to have roots in the 7th Century and so has long been a part of the City of London’s history. There is also evidence that, before it was christened, it was part of the Roman settlement of ‘Londonium’ with remnants of ancient life being found 10 feet below today’s pavements and bus lanes. Skip forward several centuries and Lothbury found itself playing a part in modern history, too. No.41 Lothbury, specifically, was the home of the National Westminster Bank from the 1830s
