Runnymede 
Description
Runnymede means "meeting meadow" and it's here in 1215 that the Barons finally cornered King John into signing the Magna Carta, the single most important legal document in the history of English law. It set down concepts such as the right to a fair trial and that everyone is born free. From this single document large parts of the American constitution, and Human rights legislation around the world have drawn inspiration. Today the site of the signing is commemorated by a small monument and the lands around the area have been taken into the custody of the National Trust to keep them special for future generations
