Monkwell Square, Garden square and street in City of London, England.
Monkwell Square features a central obelisk surrounded by green spaces and modern buildings within the Barbican estate complex in London.
The square holds connections to the Worshipful Company of Barbers, whose original hall stood here until its destruction during World War II.
This space functions as a gathering point where City professionals and residents participate in community events throughout the year.
The square sits within walking distance of Moorgate Station and offers multiple benches for visitors to rest during lunch hours.
An architect named Terry Farrell designed the modern Barber-Surgeons' Hall, which stands 10 meters east of its original location.
