Covent Garden Market London Panorama

By Panoramas 50-60 No Comments

At the centre of Covent Garden is the glass covered Piazza, home to many shops and restaurants. The original site was designed in 1638 by Indigo Jones, with its arcaded walks based on the Piazza D` Arme at Livorno.

The site first became a market place in 1671 and has remained in that role ever since. The market on the current site dates back to 1830, rebuilt by the 6th Duke of Bedford.

The architecture from this period remains intact and provides a splendid backdrop to the wider area of Covent Garden.

Church of St Giles in the Field London Panoramas

By Posts No Comments

The history of the site of St Giles in the Field dates back to 1101 with the foundation of a leper hospital. The chapel of the hospital remained when the leper treatment closed in 1547, it is at this time that the site became known as St Giles in the Fields.

The current church on the site dates back to 1730, designed by the architect Henry Flitcroft. Differing in style to Wren’s work in the City of London the church was completed in 1734 and provides a unique contrast to the Centre Point building across the way.

Two panoramas of the church provide internal and external views of the structure.

The panoramas can be viewed in full screen via the QuickTime plugin, allowing you to view the scene in 360×180 degrees at high resolution.
