London,
County Hall, South Bank I'll
give this rink points just for the creativity
of its location - on the Aquarium roof terrace
at County Hall, next to the London Eye. With
its elevated position, there are great views
up and down the Thames, with the Houses of
Parliament directly across the river. But it's
another synthetic surface, and the smallest
rink of the five - it would feel tight at its
maximum capacity of 50 people.Off-ice
facilities: The South Bank is on
the doorstep, so you don't have to go far for
hot food and drinks. The rink attracts dozens of children
every day and is crowded with adults at night.

of London – Her Majesty's Royal Palace and
Fortress on the Thames - has been the setting
for some of the most significant events in
British history. As well as being a state
prison and place of execution, the Tower has
been host to an arsenal, royal mint, royal zoo
and jewel house. Now, following hugely
successful Christmas and New Year Season Ice
Skating seasons over the last couple of years,

the most impressive and best-preserved
medieval castle in any European capital. In
1988 the Tower of London, including its
individual buildings which are themselves of
exceptional architectural and artistic
significance, was recognized by UNESCO as a
setting of outstanding and universal value and
designated a World Heritage Site. In the years
since its foundation in the 11th century the
Tower of London has stood as a vital symbol of
national identity. In Tudor days, when the
waters of the River Thames froze over, the
Tower of London was a magnificent backdrop to
many Frost Fayres where hawkers would set up
their stalls to sell refreshments to those
taking to the ice for fun and games. With the
creation of the outdoor ice rink for seven
weeks this winter visitors to the Tower of
London will be able to experience a taste of
these historic frost fayres for themselves – a

(www.streetice.co.uk/booktickets.php) The rink in Chamberlain Square is surrounded by amazing Victorian architecture. Breaking with tradition, the L-shaped ice surface is synthetic, a kind of plastic composite. I was sceptical, but it is surprisingly good. It feels funny at first, not as slick as real ice but easier to skate on, and good for beginners.Off-ice facilities: next door, at the German Christmas Market in Victoria Square, you can refuel with hot food and drink, and do some last-minute shopping. |

Tickets are available at the venue or can be booked in advance through the Central Library Ticket Shop 10am-5pm, or by calling 0121-236 5622. |
