From the begining I found the ramparts to have had quite a different atmosphere from the other squat projects found in London. Perhaps this is due to it being home to nobody and that they've maintained a clear rule that the space is run as a non-commerical venue. Having hosted a wide range of politcial and cultural activities, the space can't easily be catogarised in quite the same way as many other projects. It has neither been solely a venue for punk gigs, or a cheap 'alternative' bar, or hangout for anarcho activists, or haven for hippy healers, or exclusive artists play-pen.. but perhaps a bit of all of them.
