Leader Philip Sayers.
Thread your way through the labyrinth of medieval alleyways and courtyards that weave through the patchwork quilt of today’s City of London. Our first City walk was in the east, tracing the city from year 0 to 2000. This second City walk is to the medieval west, outwith the wall. Hear the history and judge the impact of churches, coffee-houses and craft guilds.
