Ancient Hidden Gems in the City of London
Overview
This walk takes in some of the City of London’s most impressive ancient ruins, from Roman times to medieval through to carefully preserved testaments of the WWII Blitz; some moving memorials; an open space which hosted some of the country’s most dramatic and pivotal scenes; and finally one of its most treasured churches – a survivor of many disasters and upheavals in its 900-year history. Throughout the walk the contrast between the City’s modern glass and steel structures and these almost hidden centuries-old remains will fascinate.
