About

Castle Baynard is a historic ward in the City of London, located along the northern bank of the River Thames. It stretches from Blackfriars to Queenhithe, encompassing landmarks like St. Paul's Cathedral and the Millennium Bridge. The area blends medieval architecture with modern developments, including offices and cultural spaces. Its proximity to the river has shaped its commercial and transport links over centuries.

The ward is named after Baynard's Castle, a Norman fortress that once stood here. Today, it is a mix of financial, legal, and creative industries, with a small residential population.
