Description
It’s hardly surprising with its length of history that London is one of the spookiest cities in Europe. This is a 60 minute guided walk featuring bleeding hearts and body parts, murderers, martyrs, a 900 year old prison & public executions. Learn where we get the phrase “pulling your leg!” and “one for the road”.
Take in the sights of: Smithfield Market, St Barts Hospital, St Bart’s Church, Cloth Fair, King Henry VIII’s Gate, where Christian and Protestant and Catholic martyrs were murdered in a variety of ways, a Watch House built to prevent body snatchers and the last remaining Gin Palace in the City of London.
Meeting place: Outside Chancery Lane Tube Station, NE exit (exit 2).
Customer Comments
"All of the walks are informative, entertaining and a great way to learn about, and see, things in London, that aren't necessarily the top 10 tourist sites. Hazel holds a wealth of information and delivers it in a manner that keeps the group engaged."
“Hazel provided an informative and fun commentary(and well microphoned up) on a cold and windy night. Took us to some places that,although a lifelong Londoner, I had not been to before. I would recommend her walks."
