The view
One of the City of London's largest public roof gardens — a landscaped terrace planted with wisteria, ferns and flowering beds wrapped around an open-air deck. From the 15th floor the Gherkin, the Scalpel and the Cheesegrater loom close, with Tower Bridge and the Shard beyond.
A glass walkway bridge juts out over the edge for a vertigo-tinged downward view. Being free and rarely crowded, it's one of the best no-cost high viewpoints in London.
How to get there
Fenchurch Street station (c2c rail) is a two-minute walk via Hogarth Court; Monument (District/Circle) is about five minutes and Bank is nearby.
Height of the viewpoint
Open-air rooftop on the 15th floor of Fen Court, 120 Fenchurch Street (roughly 60–70 m above street level; no official metre figure).
