About

Bridge ward is located on the north bank of the River Thames, directly east of the City's historic core. It is primarily a commercial and financial district, characterised by modern office towers and a dense street network. The ward includes the area around Monument station and the northern approaches to London Bridge itself. Its architecture is a mix of post-war developments and surviving Victorian structures, with narrow lanes leading to the riverfront.

The ward's most defining landmark is The Monument to the Great Fire of London, a Doric column built in the 1670s. The area is also home to the church of St Magnus the Martyr, with its distinctive clock projecting over the street. The ward's history is deeply tied to the river, with its boundaries shaped by the old waterfront and the ancient crossing point of London Bridge, from which the ward derives its name.
