Vintry

About

Vintry ward is located in the City of London, near the northern bank of the River Thames. It covers an area between Queen Street and Upper Thames Street, with landmarks like Vintners' Hall and the Church of St James Garlickhythe. The ward is named after the historic wine trade that once flourished here, with many wine merchants operating in the area during medieval times.

The ward is primarily commercial, with office buildings and financial institutions dominating the landscape. It retains some historic elements, such as narrow lanes and old churchyards, but much of the architecture is modern. Vintry is a small, quiet part of the City, with limited residential properties and few green spaces. Its proximity to the river and transport links makes it accessible for workers and visitors.
