The City of London is 2000 years old and is built on the foundations of the old Roman Wall.Often called ‘The Square Mile’, it is packed with history and as we walk through some of the old winding streets and alleys, we will uncover the stories behind some of the more well known buildings and some you may not have seen before.
A fascinating mix of the old and the new - of large steel and glass towers with small 16th century churches nestling up to them, narrow winding alleyways that take you off the beaten track, the oldest marketplace with a 2000 year old history - and a modern reference to Harry Potter - secret parks and monuments - and where the very first cup of coffee was sold in the City of London.
