The Trafalgar Square as we know it today was from 14th to 17th centuries a courtyard for the great mews and had stables. In 1812, John Nash started developing it as a public space and it was in 1830 that it was named Trafalgar Square. Today this is seen as the centre of National democracies and protests. In fact we saw a major rally and protest again Climate change when we were there. There are beautiful fountains here being adorned with sculptures of mermaids and Tritons ie. male figures with a fish like tail. There are also dolphin sculptures. People just come and spend here time enjoying the open space and admiring the fountains and Sculptures.
