The Famous Square Mile Walk at Monument Underground Station

This is the great classic London Walk. It explores the very heart of the City - the most historic part of the capital. Threading her way through an intricate network of narrow alleys and cobble-stone lanes, June chronicles the 2,000 years of London's rich and tumultuous history. And illustrates it by drawing upon everything from street names to ancient customs to the frozen music of London's great buildings, among which are the ruins of the Roman Temple of Mithras, the Bank of England, the Lord Mayor's Mansion House, and ancient Guildhall. (The walk includes, whenever possible, a visit inside Guildhall!).
