18. Royal Greenwich Observatory

Built-in 1676, the Royal Observatory was an ode to architecture and astronomy. King Charles II commissioned the neo-classical design as a first purpose-built scientific research facility in Britain.

3. St Martin’s in the Field

An original medieval church stood in a large grassy area, but today the current 1720s James Gibbs design sits on the edge of the iconic Trafalgar Square where tourists loiter and take photographs, whatever the season.
