Why it's Wildland

3.2

A small green pause beside the Tower of London, with a surviving fragment of Roman London’s boundary wall just to its west.

Tower Hill Garden is a modest city-centre garden rather than a wild escape. Its appeal is the immediate contrast between a quiet place to sit and one of London’s best-preserved fragments of Roman Wall.
