presentation of london city

London is the capital of England and the United Kingdom and one of the largest and most important cities in the world. The area was originally settled by early hunter gatherers around 6,000 B.C., and researchers have found evidence of Bronze Age bridges and Iron Age forts near the River Thames.

Ancient Romans founded a port and trading settlement called Londinium in 43 A.D., and a few years later a bridge was constructed across the Thames to facilitate commerce and troop movements. But in 60 A.D., Celtic queen Boudicca led an army to sack the city, which was burned to the ground in the first of many fires to destroy London.

The city was soon rebuilt, but burned again about 125 A.D. More rebuilding occurred, and within a few generations the population exceeded 40,000 people. After the fall of the Roman Empire in 476 A.D., however, the city was attacked numerous times by Vikings and other raiders, and soon London was largely abandoned.

The city’s fortunes began to change in 1065, when Westminster Abbey was established. One year later, after his victory at the Battle of Hastings , William the Conqueror was crowned King of England. During his reign, the Tower of London was built, and in 1176 a wooden London Bridge that had repeatedly burned was replaced by a bridge of stone.

As the power of the Tudor and the Stuart dynasties grew, London expanded in size and importance. By the time Henry VIII was king, the population of London was at least 100,000.

Tensions between Protestants and Catholics, however, darkened the otherwise prosperous reign of Henry’s daughter, Elizabeth I . In 1605, Catholic sympathizer Guy Fawkes tried—and failed—to blow up the entire British House of Parliament in the infamous Gunpowder Plot .

Real disaster struck in 1665, when London was hit by the Great Plague , which killed about 100,000 people. One year later, the city, which had swollen to about a half-million in population, mostly housed in wooden structures, was again reduced to ashes in the Great Fire of London . In the wake of that inferno, many notable buildings were constructed, including Buckingham Palace and St. Paul’s Cathedral .

The Bank of England was founded in 1694 and was first governed by Huguenot John Houblon, who helped turn London into an international financial powerhouse. By 1840, the city had swollen to 2 million people, often crowded into unsanitary hovels, which helped create epidemics of cholera and other diseases.

During the reign of Queen Victoria , London was well established as the prestigious seat of the vast British Empire, and while Big Ben rose above the city in 1859, the London Underground opened in 1863 as the world’s first subterranean railway. But in the shadows of the great metropolis, Jack the Ripper stalked the city’s women in 1888, killing at least five in one of history’s most notorious murder sprees.

Air raids caused about 2,300 casualties in London in World War I , and during the Battle of Britain in World War II , the city was bombed relentlessly by the German Luftwaffe—the London Blitz eventually killed about 30,000 residents.

During the Great Smog of 1952 , Londoners endured immeasurable suffering and thousands died during and after the pollution event. More recently, a terrorist attack on the London transit system killed 56 people in 2005. But the city has continued to grow and prosper, hosting the 2012 Olympics , while establishing itself as the preeminent cultural and financial center of Europe.

Unesco social media, tower of london.

  • Description

The massive White Tower is a typical example of Norman military architecture, whose influence was felt throughout the kingdom. It was built on the Thames by William the Conqueror to protect London and assert his power. The Tower of London – an imposing fortress with many layers of history, which has become one of the symbols of royalty – was built around the White Tower.

Outstanding Universal Value

Brief synthesis 

The Tower of London is an internationally famous monument and one of England’s most iconic structures. William the Conqueror built the White Tower in 1066 as a demonstration of Norman power, siting it strategically on the River Thames to act as both fortress and gateway to the capital. It is the most complete example of an 11th century fortress palace remaining in Europe. A rare survival of a continuously developing ensemble of royal buildings, from the 11th to 16th centuries, the Tower of London has become one of the symbols of royalty. It also fostered the development of several of England’s major State institutions, incorporating such fundamental roles as the nation’s defence, its record-keeping and its coinage. It has been the setting for key historical events in European history, including the execution of three English queens.

The Tower of London has Outstanding Universal Value for the following cultural qualities:

For both protection and control of the City of London, it has a landmark siting. As the gateway to the capital, the Tower was in effect the gateway to the new Norman kingdom. Sited strategically at a bend in the River Thames, it has been a crucial demarcation point between the power of the developing City of London, and the power of the monarchy. It had the dual role of providing protection for the City through its defensive structure and the provision of a garrison, and of also controlling the citizens by the same means. The Tower literally ‘towered’ over its surroundings until the 19th century.

The Tower of London was built as a demonstration and symbol of Norman power. The Tower represents more than any other structure the far-reaching significance of the mid-11th century Norman Conquest of England, for the impact it had on fostering closer ties with Europe, on English language and culture, and in creating one of the most powerful monarchies in Europe. The Tower has an iconic role as reflecting the last military conquest of England.

The property is an outstanding example of late 11th century innovative Norman military architecture. As the most complete survival of an 11th-century fortress palace remaining in Europe, the White Tower, and its later 13th and 14th century additions, belong to a series of edifices which were at the cutting edge of military building technology internationally. They represent the apogee of a type of sophisticated castle design, which originated in Normandy and spread through Norman lands to England and Wales.

The property is a model example of a medieval fortress palace, which evolved from the 11th to 16th centuries. The additions of Henry III and Edward I, and particularly the highly innovative development of the palace within the fortress, made the Tower into one of the most innovative and influential castle sites in Europe in the 13th and early 14th centuries, and much of their work survives. Palace buildings were added to the royal complex right up until the 16th century, although few now stand above ground. The survival of palace buildings at the Tower allows a rare glimpse into the life of a medieval monarch within their fortress walls. The Tower of London is a rare survival of a continuously developing ensemble of royal buildings, evolving from the 11th to the 16th centuries, and as such, has great significance nationally and internationally.

The property has strong associations with State Institutions. The continuous use of the Tower by successive monarchs fostered the development of several major State Institutions. These incorporated such fundamental roles as the nation’s defence, its records, and its coinage. From the late 13th century, the Tower was a major repository for official documents, and precious goods owned by the Crown. The presence of the Crown Jewels, kept at the Tower since the 17th century, is a reminder of the fortress’ role as a repository for the Royal Wardrobe.

As the setting for key historical events in European history: The Tower has been the setting for some of the most momentous events in European and British History. Its role as a stage upon which history has been enacted is one of the key elements which has contributed towards the Tower’s status as an iconic structure. Arguably, the most important building of the Norman Conquest, the White Tower symbolised the might and longevity of the new order. The imprisonments in the Tower of Edward V and his younger brother in the 15th century, and then, in the 16th century, of four English queens, three of them executed on Tower Green – Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard and Jane Grey – with only Elizabeth I escaping, shaped English history. The Tower also helped shape the story of the Reformation in England, as both Catholic and Protestant prisoners (those that survived) recorded their experiences and helped define the Tower as a place of torture and execution.

Criterion (ii): A monument symbolic of royal power since the time of William the Conqueror, the Tower of London has served as an outstanding model throughout the kingdom since the end of the 11th century. Like it, many keeps were built in stone, e.g. Colchester, Rochester, Hedingham, Norwich or Carisbrooke Castle on the Isle of Wight.

Criterion (iv): The White Tower is the example par excellence of the royal Norman castle from the late 11th century. The ensemble of the Tower of London is a major reference for the history of medieval military architecture. 

All the key Norman and later buildings, surrounded by their defensive wall and moat, are within the property boundary. There are few threats to the property itself, but the areas immediately beyond the moat and the wider setting of the Tower, an ensemble that was created to dominate its surroundings, have been eroded.

The Tower’s landmark siting and visual dominance on the edge of the River Thames, and the impression of great height it once gave, all key aspects of its significance, have to some extent been eroded by tall new buildings in the eastern part of the City of London, some of which predate inscription. Some of these have, to a degree, had an adverse impact on the views into, within and out of the property.

The Tower’s physical relationship to both the River Thames and the City of London, as fortress and gateway to the capital, and its immediate and wider setting, including long views, will continue to be threatened by proposals for new development that is inappropriate to the context. Such development could limit the ability to perceive the Tower as being slightly apart from the City, or have an adverse impact on its skyline as viewed from the river.

Authenticity

The role of the White Tower as a symbol of Norman power is evident in its massive masonry. It remains, with limited later change, as both an outstanding example of innovative Norman architecture and the most complete survival of a late 11th century fortress palace in Europe. Much of the work of Henry III and Edward I, whose additions made the Tower into a model example of a concentric medieval fortress in the 13th and early 14th centuries, survives. The Tower’s association with the development of State institutions, although no longer evident in the physical fabric, is maintained through tradition, documentary records, interpretative material, and the presence of associated artefacts, for example, armour and weaponry displayed by the Royal Armouries. The Tower also retains its original relationship with the surrounding physical elements – the scaffold site, the Prisoners’ or Water Gate, the dungeons — that provided the stage for key events in European history, even though the wider context, beyond the moat, has changed.

Its form, design and materials remain intact and legible as at the time of inscription, accepting the fact that extensive restoration had been undertaken during the 19th century by Anthony Salvin in a campaign to ‘re-medievalise’ the fortress. The Tower is no longer in use as a fortress, but its fabric still clearly tells the story of the use and function of the monument over the centuries. The fabric also continues to demonstrate the traditions and techniques that were involved in its construction. The ability of the Tower to reflect its strategic siting and historic relationship to the City of London is vulnerable to proposals for development that do not respect its context and setting.

Protection and management requirements

The UK Government protects World Heritage properties in England in two ways. Firstly, monuments, individual buildings and conservation areas are designated under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 and the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and secondly, through the UK Spatial Planning system under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. The property is protected as a scheduled ancient monument and buildings within it are protected as statutorily listed buildings.

Government guidance on protecting the historic environment and World Heritage is set out in the National Planning Policy Framework and Circular 07/09. Policies to protect, promote, conserve and enhance World Heritage properties, their settings and buffer zones are also found in statutory planning documents.

The Mayor’s London Plan provides a strategic social, economic, transport and environmental framework for London and its future development over 20-25 years. It contains policies to protect and enhance the historic environment in general and World Heritage properties in particular. The London View Management Framework Supplementary Planning Guidance published by the Mayor protects important designated views, including a protected view of the Tower of London from the south bank of the River Thames. Locally, the Tower of London falls within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and is adjoined by the City of London and the London Borough of Southwark. Each of these local planning authorities has an emerging Local Development Plan, which provide a framework of policies to protect and promote the Tower of London World Heritage property.

The Tower of London World Heritage Site Management Plan is reviewed regularly. Its implementation is integrated into the activities of Historic Royal Palaces, the independent charity responsible for caring for the Tower of London. The Tower of London World Heritage Site Consultative Committee, a group consisting of on-site partners, local authorities and heritage specialists, monitors implementation and review of the plan and provides a forum for consultation on issues affecting the Tower of London and its environs.

The most significant challenges to the property lie in managing the environs of the Tower of London so as to protect its Outstanding Universal Value and setting. At a strategic level, these challenges are recognised in the London Plan and the Boroughs’ emerging Local Plans. These documents set out a strategic framework of policies aimed at conserving, protecting and enhancing the Outstanding Universal Value of the Tower and its setting. The challenges are also identified in the World Heritage Site Management Plan, which defines the local setting of the Tower and key views within and from it. Objectives in the Plan to address the challenges are being implemented (for example, through a local setting study that informed understanding of the immediate setting of the property, and through work on the property’s attributes), although pressures remain significant, particularly in the wider setting. Discussions take place as part of the Management Plan review regarding how best to ensure continued protection of the Outstanding Universal Value of the property and its setting.

Other challenges include pressures on funding. However, Historic Royal Palaces has put in place robust measures to ensure that the Tower of London is properly protected, interpreted and conserved in accordance with its key charitable objectives. These measures include long-term conservation plans, prioritised and funded according to conservation needs, and cyclical maintenance plans. Plans for the visitor experience respond to the Historic Royal Palaces’ Cause — to help everyone explore the stories of the palaces — and are subject to rigorous evaluation. All plans are regularly monitored and reviewed.

History of London

  • General Information

History of London

Get to know the history of London, from the Roman conquest to the modern day . Discover details and curious facts about the long history of the British capital.

London is situated on the banks of the River Thames . It is the seat of the Government of the United Kingdom and the country’s financial centre. The city has used its privileged location in southeastern England to its advantage, having always been a densely populated and wealthy area.

London's foundation

The city of London was founded by the Romans and their rule extended from 43 AD to the fifth century AD , when the Empire fell. During the third century, Londinium, the name given to the town by the Romans, had a population of 50,000, mainly due to the influence of its major port.

As a consequence of repeated Anglo-Saxon invasions during the fifth century, Londinium declined and during the eighth century it became the capital of the Kingdom of Essex.

During the ninth century, the town suffered numerous Viking attacks . As a consequence, Danish settlers established themselves in the area, encouraging trade and opening businesses in the town, transforming it into the first urban centre of England. The town’s wealth and power attracted the Danish Great Heathen Army, which besieged the city until it was captured by King Alfred the Great in 886. 

In 1067, following the Norman invasion and conquering of England, the city's existing rights, laws and privileges were established by the newly crowned King of England, William Duke of Normandy. The Tower of London was built during William's reign.

In 1199, King John reinforced the city's self-government, and in 1215 the city could elect a different mayor every year.

For many years, England had no capital city. However, the institutions of central government were moved to Westminster, close to London. This and the rise of trade in the area were two decisive factors in London's emergence as the capital of England. 

An ever-growing city

During the fourteenth century, London’s port became a European hub for the distribution of goods. This activity was strengthened during the fifteenth century thanks to its relevant textile industry.

From the sixteenth to mid-seventeenth century, London benefited from the centralized politics and the maritime trade expansion developed by the Tudors and continued by the Stuarts. During Henry VIII’s reign London had 100,000 inhabitants.  In mid-seventeenth century it had over 500,000.

In 1665 , the city was still held inside the ancient walls although large-scale urban planning had already started. The population’s poor living conditions were responsible for the Great Plague, killing 70,000 people, and  t he following year, a huge fire burnt down most of the city . The reconstruction of London, based on the area we now call "The City", took over 10 years to finish. The architect Christopher Wren’s masterpieces such as St. Paul’s Cathedral increased the appeal of London, and thus the capital became the centre of English social life with palaces, halls, theatres, societies (Royal Society, 1662) and museums ( British Museum , 1753).

London continued to grow thanks to the foundation of the Bank of England in 1694. It was the second central bank in the world, rapidly following the Swedish Sveriges Riksbank, and arguably the most successful: it provided the financial flexibility which would be the foundation of the empire's power and whose vestiges can be seen today in London's preeminence as a financial centre.

Most of current London is from the Victorian period. Up until the early years of the nineteenth century, the capital was confined to the boundaries of the original Roman city, as well as Westminster and Mayfair, and was surrounded by fields. Be that as it may, the Industrial Revolution drew millions of people to London , expanding the city. However, the overcrowded conditions led to grave problems like the 1832 cholera epidemics, or the great stink of 1858, an event that took place during the hottest months of the summer, exacerbating the smell of the sewers that were dumped in the River Thames, which led to the suspension of the parliamentary sessions.

From 1750, the population increased from 700,000 to over 4,500,000 in 1901 (6,600,000 if we include the suburban areas). At the end of the nineteenth century, London had become a major international trade and finance capital.

The administrative needs of a city with so much commercial activity led the creation of a new autonomous territorial unit in 1888, the County of London, ruled by the "London county council". This county was divided into twenty-nine electoral units (the city and 28 metropolitan boroughs), but the progressive expansion soon overflowed outside the county boundaries to the suburban areas. After a steady period, the population of the capital began to decline at the end of World War I and fell below 3.5 million by 1950. In contrast, the suburban area grew steadily.

In 1963 a new division of London was made, comprising the old town and 32 metropolitan boroughs, and these are the divisions which can be seen today.

The most important event in London's recent history was the UK's departure from the European Union. Although the referendum on leaving the EU took place in 2016 , the process took some time. The UK officially left the EU on 31st January 2020 . A transition period was then established, during which final trade agreements were reached, which ended on 31st December 2020 .

City Hall: All the candidates standing to be London mayor in 2024

T he 2024 London mayoral elections are just over a month away – and the final list of candidates who want to run for City Hall has been revealed.

One candidate who won’t be running again is former mayoral candidate Laurence Fox who failed to secure a chance to run again after submitting nomination papers too close to the deadline containing “errors”.

The 13 candidates have all paid the required £10,000 deposit in order to run.

We’ve rounded up the full list of candidates below:

Femy Amin is standing for the Animal Welfare Party – People, Animals, Environment.

According to the party, Amin was a refugee from Afghanistan aged 16, and wants to “create an inclusive, empathetic and equitable London, where every individual is valued”. 

Sadiq Khan pledges 1,300 more police on London streets in pre-election promise

Count Binface

The satirical political candidate is standing for City Hall once again, under the Count Binface for Mayor of London party.

He described himself in a tweet as an “intergalactic space warrior, leader of the Recyclons from Planet Sigma IX, Lovejoy fan, London mayor candidate, and expert form-filler”.

Rob Blackie

Rob Blackie is standing for the Liberal Democrats, running under the slogan ‘Fix the Met’ after previously being violently mugged. Blackie now has a titanium neck after surgery.

He runs a tech business and was a former advisor to Lib Dem leader Charles Kennedy.

Natalie Denise Campbell

Natalie Denise Campbell is standing as an independent candidate for mayor of London.

Writing for the Social Market Foundation, Campbell pledged she would “end youth homelessness through the introduction of a tourist levy”.

A women’s commissioner and ending Khan’s ‘chumocracy’: Here’s what Susan Hall would do if elected Mayor of London

Former FairFuelUK campaigner Howard Cox is standing for Reform UK – London Deserves Better.

His campaign is focused around transport issues including low traffic neighbourhoods and 20mph zones – and he is pledging to scrap ULEZ, cut crime and “ditch Khan”.

Amy Gallagher

Amy Gallagher is standing for the Social Democratic Party in London. Her X – formerly Twitter – bio states: “Suing The Tavistock NHS. Against Critical Race Theory.” 

Her campaign aims include stopping “divisive woke messaging”, “sex based rights for women” and “increase stop and search powers”.

Zoë Garbett

Hackney councillor Zoë Garbett is standing for City Hall for the Green Party.

Her policies include extending free bus travel to under 22s and asylum seekers; offering free school meals for primary and secondary pupils; and introducing a rent freeze.

City Hall: Sadiq Khan pledges 40,000 new homes at re-election campaign launch

Tarun Ghulati

Investment banker Tarun Ghulati is also an independent candidate for mayor of London.

He has highlighted that “around 2.2m Londoners continue to live in poverty” and his plans include “improving wellbeing and living standards”; doing “much more… for the low- and middle-income households”; “reinvigorating optimism” and supporting “entrepreneurship”.

Susan Mary Hall

Susan Hall is standing as the Conservative Party’s candidate for London mayor.

Hall, a former council leader and Tory City Hall group leader, wants to invest £200m in policing, end the ULEZ scheme, and introduce a women’s commissioner.

Her campaign has already seen a series of blunders, including criticism for liking controversial posts on social media. Last week she described a post on X, formerly Twitter by Katie Hopkins calling Sadiq Khan “mayor of Londonistan” as “hurty words”.

Incumbent mayor Sadiq Khan is standing for the Labour Party as he aims to secure a record third term at City Hall .

Since officially launching his campaign Khan has announced policies including the goal of getting 1,300 more police onto the streets and building 40,000 new council homes. 

City Hall: Lib Dem mayoral candidate Rob Blackie vows to take on Sadiq Khan and Susan Hall

Andreas Christoffi Michli

Gym owner Andreas Christoffi Michli is standing as an independent candidate under the slogan: ‘#MakeLondonStrong’.

He describes himself as a “proud father, health and fitness entrepreneur, and independent candidate for mayor of London”. He also wants to reform the Met Police and build homes.

Brian Benedict Rose

Brian Benedict Rose is running for City Hall for the London Real Party – Transform London –  campaigning for “freedom of speech, freedom of finance, freedom to be safe and freedom to travel”.

The US-born podcaster lives in London where he hosts the London Real podcast and ran to be mayor three years ago. Since then, he claims, the city has “descended into an Orwellian nightmare of censorship, unbanking, violence and punishing taxes”.

Nick Scanlon

Nick Scanlon is running for Britain First – No To Immigration.

He claimed on X, formerly Twitter, that: “ Over the last few decades Londoner’s have watched on in horror as their once relatively tranquil and cohesive city has been transformed into something completely unrecognisable… Let’s take London back!”

Arsenal travel to Manchester City this afternoon in a highly-anticipated Premier League title clash at the Etihad Stadium.

The Gunners can move four points clear of the defending champions with a win over Pep Guardiola's side . Mikel Arteta's men currently lead the way at the top of the Premier League table, level on points with Liverpool.

City have been tipped to continue their 22-game unbeaten run though they are without Ederson, John Stones and Kyle Walker through injury. Arsenal themselves could be without some key players with Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Magalhaes all facing late fitness tests.

Liverpool are in action later today, with their home game against Brighton & Hove Albion taking place at 2pm. Jurgen Klopp's men could go top of the league with a win before Arsenal and City face-off.

"Yeah we had some clashes, in the FA Cup as well and in the Community Shield," Arteta said on the belief of his squad. "It's all great experiences.

"They have raised the bar in this league and football in general to levels that haven't been seen before. That's the beauty of this sport because it makes you better and challenges you more. You have to keep up with that pace and that’s what we’re trying to do."

The Banksy mural after it was covered with clear plastic

Banksy mural in north London gets plastic cover after vandalism

Council says protective clear plastic cover was installed by owner of building on which mural was painted

A Banksy mural in north London has been covered with plastic sheeting and surrounded by wooden boards.

The artwork appeared on the side of a residential building in Hornsey Road, Finsbury Park, on 18 March and was splattered with white paint shortly after.

The mural has now been covered with plastic sheeting by the building’s owner, a spokesperson for Islington council said.

Banksy claimed the mural as his own in an Instagram post after it drew crowds and attracted speculation.

The artwork features bright green paint sprayed on to the building behind a cut-back tree, creating the impression of being its foliage, with a stencil of a person holding a pressure hose.

A council spokesperson said: “The Banksy artwork has attracted huge crowds and there is a need to protect the art and local residents from the impact of visitor numbers.

“The clear plastic and wooden frame over the artwork was installed by the owner of the building, not by the council.”

They added: “To give people more security and privacy, and to protect the tree, we’re installing a hoarding, which will include clear plastic panels to protect the artwork and allow clear views.”

Previous “temporary measures” put in place by Islington council included metal fencing and regular checks by park patrol officers to manage crowds and help protect the artwork.

The spokesperson said the council would continue to explore “future solutions with the building owner so people can enjoy the artwork”.

They said the local authority was also in the process of installing a CCTV camera.

Here’s a recent soccer story, via the AP:

LONDON (AP) — Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia was ruled out of the rest of the season Wednesday after suffering a setback in his recovery from a thigh injury, completing a frustrating first year at the London club.

The 20-year-old Lavia joined Chelsea from relegated Southampton late in the summer transfer window for a reported fee of 58 million pounds ($74 million) but has only made one appearance in all competitions this season — as a 58th-minute substitute against Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Dec. 27.

During that game, he sustained a “significant thigh injury,” Chelsea said, and hasn’t played since.

Lavia missed the first half of the season because of an ankle injury.

It ends any chances of Lavia playing for Belgium at the European Championship starting June.

The midfield anchorman rejected a proposed move to Liverpool to join Chelsea on a seven-year deal, having only played 29 times in the Premier League to that point.

Lavia played in the youth system at Anderlecht before moving to Manchester City in 2020 and then to Southampton in search of more playing time.
