This fascinating area, located on the West bank of the now subterranean River Fleet, is home to so much more than gold and diamonds.
Once the site of medieval monasteries and noble estates, it later became the heart of the London Jewish diamond trade. The Italian community made this area their home in the 19th century, leaving an indelible mark on its streets.
From long forgotten palaces to ancient churches, from terrible poverty to beautiful jewellery, come and meet the characters, both real and fictional, criminal and charitable, who have made this unique and fascinating part of London their home.
If you are a lover of London’s hidden gems- both literal and figurative – this walking tour is for you!
