All Hallows London Wall

> Enlarge picture
This is part of the former churchyard to the medieval All Hallows Church; a church has existed on this site from c.1130, with a churchyard here by 1348. The north wall of the church sits on the Roman foundations of London Wall, the vestry on foundations of a Roman bastion. Part of the medieval remains of London Wall form one boundary of the churchyard west of the church, which was once railed. It is now a small raised public garden with a few trees and shrubs, paving, benches and raised flower beds along the old City Wall.
