I know it is another ceiling, but I really love this one at Temple Church.
Built by the Knights Templar in the 12th century, birthplace of Magna Carta, chapel of the Inner and Middle Temples, and steeped in history.
Do go and visit - especially when they have their history talks on

This is the beautiful Pond Garden at Hampton Court Palace - with the Little Banqueting House in the background.

The Pond Garden was originally built in the 1530s as freshwater fish ponds for King Henry VIII, like carp and bream for the royal kitchen.

Caryatids on Euston Road - above the crypt of St Pancras (New) Church, consecrated in 1822.

Thought to have been based on the Porch of the Maidens at the Erechtheum. They have central cast iron columns which provide the support for the roof, with terracotta used to form the figures.

I know it is another ceiling pic, but the reading room at The Maughan Library is awesome.

The room has a dodecagonal shape and rises through three tiers of cast-iron galleries. A striking, shallow glass-and-iron dome caps the space, flooding the desks below with natural light.

200 year old collection box.
Following the dissolution of the monasteries in the 1530s, which previously looked after those in need, the Poor Laws were passed mandating that parishes and hospitals had collections for the poor like this box here - although this is not as old as that!

St John's Gate, Clerkenwell.
I've been living around here since 1999 and honestly, the awe walking through this 500+ year old gate never wears off.

Famous for inspiring the Dr Who TARDIS, this replica was put outside Earl's Court Station in 1996.

This is a City of London Police Call Post - one of only 8 that survive on the streets of London today - now Grade II listed.

These small cast-iron towers were installed from the late 1920s throughout the City, reaching their peak in the 1950s with over 600 of them in use.

Beneath the Guildhall Great Hall lie the largest surviving medieval crypts in London.
They were built at different times and are different styles. The west crypt (2nd pic) is thought to be from the late 13th Century so older than the current 15th Century hall above it.
