Wednesday Walks
JUNE - JULY, 2026
Join us on the first Wednesday of each month where we will introduce you to hidden corners of London and tell you some of London's best stories.
There is no need to book for these tours, just turn up and pay the guide £15 on the day. It would, however, help the guide if you could email in advance if you expect to attend - also let us know if you change your mind!

The Wall around London was built 50 years after the foundation of Londinium in AD200 and played an important part in the development of London till the gates were pulled down in the 18th century. We will walk the route of the wall and see how London life adapted to fit around it.
