We've got it sorted…
Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Downing Street, The Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace are all readily recognisable and familiar. However, behind the familiar they all have stories and tales that are less well known. Our circular walk, starting and finishing at Trafalgar Square tells the story of these well-known sites and uncovers some of their more curious secrets.
As London grew rapidly in the 18th and 19th centuries, the area between King’s Cross and Farringdon changed beyond all recognition. Our walk explores the engineering marvels of the Victorian age, the struggles faced by ordinary people in a rapidly growing city and uncovers some of the darker tales of yesteryear.
It’s hard to believe that one of the most expensive residential districts in Europe was once an area of marshy land known as Five Fields. Join us as we trace the history of this exclusive area and go behind the scenes to visit the pubs that would have been frequented by the footmen, stable boys and servants. Visiting 5 pubs in total we will end our tour with a visit to The Star for a final drink and a bite to eat.
From the Romans to medieval London. From Pepys to Dickens. Our walk takes us on into the 20th Century to uncover a world of firewatchers, ARP wardens and auxiliary firefighters. The City of London was a prime target for the Luftwaffe. Our walk will tell a story of bravery and courage in the face of, at times, overwhelming odds.
Our new historical London walk takes us to a relatively small part of London, but one which has plenty of tales to tell! London’s playground for over 200 years. Starting at Tottenham Court Station and finishing in Chinatown this walk is a reminder that “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together.”
Sticking to the riverside path this walk runs from the familiar splendour of St Pauls to the less familiar waterfront at Wapping. Revisit the haunts of the press gangs, pirates and their pursuers. An opportunity to see a rapidly changing London alongside a London that would have been familiar to the merchants and seafarers of the 18th century.
In between the story of an expanding and changing London there is an opportunity to enjoy some of the best views of the capital on offer. Much of this walk follows the canal towpath and is an opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of the modern capital.
For fans of A Christmas Carol and of Charles Dickens generally, this is the walk for you! Get into the spirit of Christmas and step back to take a look at London as Charles Dickens would have seen it 150 years ago. Join us as we visit the places that featured in Dickens’ life and work and inspired him to create characters as dark, as joyous and as complex as Scrooge, Jacob Marley, the Cratchit family and as we are approaching Christmas we’ll do our best to banish all thoughts of ‘Bah humbug!!
