Trafalgar Square - Dr Holt

Question of the week: What's one of your favourite things about Trafalgar Square?

"Everyone seems to know where it is, so Trafalgar Square is a point of reference when directing anyone anywhere. It has also been for me these years a useful measurement to keep in my mind's eye when directing or pondering a journey around London. For example, from the Centre to, say, Tate Britain is about six or seven Trafalgar Square's away ... and so we can tell at once, is that too far for some to walk, but not for others?"
