Beautiful Streets

Streets, squares, mews and lanes. The most charming streetscapes in London. Some well known, some hidden gems.

Lincoln's Inn

Gatehouse, chapel and hall round two courts and a lawn, in the middle of legal London.

Squares & yards

A lit lamppost in the foreground of Lincoln's Inn at night, the Great Hall floodlit behind the lawn — The Great Hall across the lawn, on a winter evening.

The Great Hall and library of Lincoln's Inn lit at dusk, bicycles parked in the foreground and plane trees overhead — The hall and library from the square, bicycles and plane trees.

Also in Power & Politics and Literary London.

One of the four Inns of Court and the one that has kept most of itself: the Tudor gatehouse on Chancery Lane of 1518, the Old Hall behind it, a chapel with an undercroft to walk through, and the Victorian Great Hall and library on the north side of the lawn. It is private ground open on weekdays, and stepping in from Chancery Lane is one of the sharper changes of pace in London.
