"Another gem by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, Bankside B power station was a beacon of modernity when it was constructed in the 1940s as the first oil-fired power station in Britain. The imposing chimney, its defining feature, was restricted to a height of 99m (325ft) so as not to outdo its illustrious neighbour opposite, St Paul’s. After shutting in the 1980s, the power station was resurrected by the relatively unknown Herzog & de Meuron, who won a competition to transform its crumbling shell into the new Tate Modern, which opened in May 2000."

"If modern culture is more your style, we highly recommend a visit to the Tate Modern. From William Blake to Andy Warhol, you’ll find some of the most revered pieces of modern art housed in this red-brick temple of Brutalist architecture. The interior is almost as striking as the art it houses, with the mesmerisingly modern turbine room welcoming you to an afternoon of cultural exploration."

"The most-visited modern art gallery in the world, partly because it holds the national collection of British art from 1900 to the present day, as well as international modern and contemporary art, but mainly because the 6th floor members’ cafe has one of London’s best views. Which is like art in itself, man."

"Camden Market’s first-ever pub, The Farrier is one of several openings hoping to reinvigorate this north London space. In one corner of the yard, the gastropub is headed up by Ash Finch, a former chef at The Langham and Wild Honey (as well as a brief stint at Noma), who trained under Marcus Wareing and Alain Ducasse and is now turning his attention to seasonal British produce served in a historic setting. Inside, the restaurant embraces its heritage as Grade II-listed former stables, with exposed brickwork and cast-iron features lit by plenty of candles."

"A fancy new pub is coming to North London on 15 April, and naturally a banging terrace was high on their list of priorities. The outdoor heated terrace and hidden courtyard get top marks for their cosy fire pit, and the entire food and drink menu will be orientated towards their al fresco surroundings for the launch. Although the kitchen is headed up by a chef with Michelin star credentials (Ash Finch has worked under Marcus Waring and Alain Ducasse), there's nothing stuffy about the pub: fish and chips with mushy peas is still firmly on the menu."

"In a nutshell: Grade II listed Camden pub and restaurant Where is it?. North Yard, Camden Market, Chalk Farm Road, London NW1 8AH Why should you care?. This new neighbourhood pub and restaurant has taken over a Grade II listed building in Camden and has both a big focus on natural wine as well as a very handy heated courtyard."
