The short 202 foot walk from The Monument memorial to the Great Fire of London in 1666 to Pudding Lane, the location of the baker's shop where the fire was 'said to' have started. On passing by, there is a black cube, which Google Maps lists as an "Illumanited Toilets". The memorials' frieze has many masonic meanings, with angles that depict the compass and square. Architect and master freemason Sir Christopher Wren designed the Monument after the great fire, employing Sculptor Caius Gabriel Cibber to work on the frieze art piece.
