Amen Corner
Amen Corner is a private road which has no public right of way
The only residential street within the shadows of Saint Paul’s Cathedral, indeed the quietest spot within the square mile, is the picturesque 17th - century houses built for the clergymen of Saint Paul's Cathedral with the peaceful name of Amen Corner. The ironwork around the doors of the houses still holds the torch snuffers as well as the old gas lamps.
An old piece of Newgate Prison Wall That Still Survives today.On private land which separates the rear of the Old Bailey from Amen Corner is the only complete surviving wall of Newgate Prison, complete with gas lamps.
