London Stone - Definition and Overview |
|
London Stone 111 Cannon Street London
The London Stone is an ancient stone, that is said to be the place from which the Romans measured all distances in Great Britain.
The Stone was originally set into the wall of St Swithin's Church which was on this site before it was demolished and now sits in a glass case behind a ornate metal grill (mainly overlooked by passers-by) in the front of the 'Overseas Chinese Banking Company' opposite Cannon Street station, on Cannon Street in the City of London.
There is also a pub nearby called "The London Stone", which is run by the Eerie Pub Company.
