The two walks presented here are part of a series of walks around London that my husband and I greatly enjoyed in the past. The entire series of walks offer up a variety of London culture, architecture and sights, ranging from typically tourists walks, along the Southbank of the Thames; to the far from tourist walk along the Elephant and Castle to Telegraph Hill. Most of the walks are very different from each other, emphasising the diverse nature of London sightseeing. But even these walks do not fully explain or explore London. London is a big place and probably the most diverse city in the world. We haven’t included any maps, but our directions are very specific. Never the less, you might find it useful to carry a small A to Z of London with you.
Each walk is very descriptive and includes anecdotes and stories (scurrilous and otherwise). These walks are to be savoured and enjoyed and not rushed through. Each walk begins and ends at a London Underground Tube station.
The two walks in this short volume are:
The Great Fire of London and The City Churches of Sir Christopher Wren (I love the alleys and nooks of the City of London, and there are some great churches as well!)
AND
The Tyburn and a Marble Arch (best done with a picnic on a warm summer’s day. At the very least it should be a dry day)
