Quite pathetic the way the office staff responded to Covid-19, with any noisy flat updates allowed by companies not doing Covid-19 work regulations who made fanciful claims about work being essential during lockdown. One dubious claim was that a flat had no bathroom usable for 2 weeks of loud work when people were not meant to leave their residences. If their were residents in the flat they would have needed industrial ear protectors and a top grade face mask. And where could they go to the toilet?
Office also rudely never bother replying to any complaints.
Pretty inefficient staff in control of security maintenance and ensuring rules regarding cycling and even use of mopeds and scooters sometimes are followed. Actual cleaners and gardeners however do an excellent job as do car park attendants.

Nice statue which caused comment when erected as faced away from the church and led to the following poem:-
"Brandy Nan, Brandy Nan,
They've left you in the lurch,
Facing towards the gin shops,
With you back towards the church"

Good location for an information centre but also possible to get better London maps for free from Underground stations such as Temple.
Notice an awful lot of the photographs for the information centre are of St Pauls and basically irrelevant

Mainly know it as my local polling station and once for a classical concert from the local school.
Nice building and surrounded by old headstones etc dug up when the Barbican estate was being built.
Interesting stained glass window on West end showing the modern City of London skyline a few years back with No 42 or the old Nat West Tower as it was known before, being most recognisable

Good service and the most toilets in a Starbucks and tend to be working.
Down side, lots of business people waffling on pretending to work with although they disappear around lunch. Here there is a place to recycle your takeaway coffee cups but bizarrely some who use them in the store just don't bother even just putting them in the bin three feet away.
