The biggest presence in Smithfield is the Barbican. Designed by Chamberlin, Powell and Bon and Grade II listed, it encompasses little known private gardens and, of course, the entertainment complex. A self-contained style citadel, loved as much as Trellick Tower by architects and designers. The tower apartments offer unparalleled views for reasonable prices. Ears pop as the lift shoots up 30 floors. A rarely available three-bedroom triplex with three terraces is on sale now for £1.85 million - take a look at this and other Smithfield properties, on this edition of Cool in Your Code.
