Can't really see much, due to security... the "famous door" is quite far down and it's hard to see it, even standing at the edge of the fence looking down the street- at an angle

Richard Costigan

Not quite as easy to see it as portrayed on television and movies . I am sure if you made loud noises and begin running, you would get an insiders view and a deportation asap.

Sharon Docherty

If you have the opportunity to visit the Terracotta Room look above the door leading to the Pillared Room there is a tribute to Margaret Thatcher: a straw-carrying 'thatcher'.[110]

Carl Griffin

You can see the house through the gates but police will not let you through for a closer look.

Brian Strauss

Men with machine guns and really pissed off Nepalese protestors. A real live episode of Cops. Yay!

Spooky sightings at No.10 include a gowned woman in the Pillared Room and the spectre of a little girl in the basement who has been known to hold the hands of those walking the corridors. Read more

Greater transparency is a result of a true effort to open information and data 10 downing is massive as opposed to its humble exterior

Bianca Eder

Bit overrated. Can't see anything, guess its just good for swarm check ins ;). Hoeever often you see demonstrations across the road , interesting to see whats going on in other parts of the world

There are actually three No.10 doors. Two are used in rotation and the original door is held in the Imperial War Museum .
