LETTER: The shape of Paternoster Square
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From The Rev Geoffrey Kemble

Sir: In some private park (known to the City Fathers) there resides Wren's Temple Bar Gate, removed before my time from the Strand and marking an entrance into the City of London from the City of Westminster, prior to its removal. May I suggest that this splendid arch might be a focal part of the redevelopment of Paternoster Square? Being part of the City heritage, as well as an appropriate structure next to Wren's magnificent cathedral, the archway would be visually and historically welcome.
Yours sincerely,
Geoffrey Kemble Johnson
