Today I went to a little charming garden near St. Paul’s Cathedral and had lunch there.
The cathedral is very imponent and was a target during the Blitz.
A time-delayed bomb that had struck the cathedral was successfully defused and removed by a Bomb Disposal detachment of Royal Engineers. Had this bomb detonated, it would have totally destroyed the Cathedral, as it left a 100-foot (30 m) crater when it was later remotely detonated in a secure location.
Impressive, isn’t it?
The little green garden is hidden among Cannon St., Watling St., and New Change.
The Cathedral was a target during the Blitz.
