Assalamualaikum,

Today we'll be walking in Aldgate (London Walk tour)

Aldgate derived its name from Aldgate high street which was home to the former gate in the London Wall. In the 18th century, Aldgate was at the epicentre of the sugar refining industry. The historic street pattern in central Aldgate was redeveloped in the 1970’s to form Aldgate Square. The border of the former London Wall runs along the western side of the Square.

Aldgate is now at the epicentre of the finance and business industry and hosts a range of lavish business and leisure complexes. With so much to do in and around the area.
Aldgate High Street has an important place in medieval London's history. Aldgate High Street was closely located to where the eastern part of the original Roman Wall, and in the medieval period, it led to town of Colchester in Essex. Because of its connection to places outside London, Aldgate High Street was vital to the geography of medieval London. Aldgate High Street's close proximity to Aldgate helped to cement it as a center for visitors. The street was once home to inns and taverns to accommodate the travelers coming in and out of London through Aldgate. As is the case with many other parts of London, there are few remnants of buildings or sites actually dating back to the medieval period.

Aldgate mendapatkan namanya dari jalan raya Aldgate yang merupakan rumah bagi bekas gerbang di Tembok London. Pada abad ke-18, Aldgate berada di pusat industri penyulingan gula. Pola jalan bersejarah di pusat Aldgate dikembangkan kembali pada tahun 1970-an untuk membentuk Aldgate Square. Perbatasan bekas Tembok London membentang di sepanjang sisi barat Alun-alun.

Aldgate High Street memiliki tempat penting dalam sejarah abad pertengahan London. Aldgate High Street terletak dekat dengan tempat bagian timur Tembok Romawi asli, dan pada periode abad pertengahan, itu mengarah ke kota Colchester di Essex. Karena hubungannya dengan tempat-tempat di luar London, Aldgate High Street sangat penting bagi geografi London abad pertengahan. Aldgate High Street yang dekat dengan Aldgate membantu memperkuatnya sebagai pusat pengunjung. Jalan itu dulunya merupakan rumah bagi penginapan dan kedai minuman untuk menampung para pelancong yang masuk dan keluar London melalui Aldgate. Seperti halnya dengan banyak bagian lain di London, hanya ada sedikit sisa bangunan atau situs yang benar-benar berasal dari periode abad pertengahan.
