Beneath the Queen Elizabeth Hall in the Southbank Center lurks an area set aside for skateboarders. It has been a main London skateboarding scene for more than 40 years (check out Winstan Whitter’s documentary “Rollin Through the Decades”). Besides being the go-to place for skateboarders, the spot also attracts graffiti artists. While there, pay a visit to the nearby Hungerford Bridge and take a look over the edge. You’ll see what is called the “Skateboard Graveyard”, where many broken decks were flung off the bridge.
