Forthcoming Walks

Starts outside Farringdon Station, Cowcross Street, London EC1M 6BY.

This walk looks at London at War during two conflicts, starting with a V-2 rocket attack in 1945 on Smithfield Market, the scars of which can still be seen today. We then travel back in time over one hundred years to look at the very first Zeppelin airship raid that reached central London, which created terror close to St Bartholomew's Hospital. A nearby V-1 attack from the subsequent conflict is also looked at, before we settle down to studying the events of 29 December 1940 at various locations in the Square Mile, as we take a meandering route that culminates at St Paul's Cathedral, where we look at the wartime incidents that affected Wren's masterpiece. Walk guided by Steve Hunnisett
