Owner Comments:

Ludgate was built in or around 1260. One of the largest gates to protect London. This is one of Kempson 38 tokens he made of the great city. Destroyed in the fire of 1666. It was it was sold in 1760 and shortly taken down. There is much history and not enough room. The status of Queen Elizabeth was built there and moved to St. Dudsatans Church. I wish I could go on.
