Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London

Lincoln’s Inn Fields, near to Sir John Soane’s Museum, is the largest public square in London. I had a brief walk through here – and stopped off at the cafe for a quick drink after visiting the museum. It was created in the 1630s and as you can see is a very popular spot for dog walking.

The fields take their name from the nearby Lincoln’s Inn, one of the four inns of court – to practice as a barrister in England and Wales you need to belong to one of these inns.

One thing I found surprising was just how loud the local starlings were – I don’t think I’ve ever seen or a heard a starling up close before, and luckily this one posed for me before flying off.

A nice space for a wander there is the Pear Tree Cafe within the Fields for a bite to eat and a drink.
