    Now a beautiful mosque, at the time of Jack The Ripper the building was a synagogue and a century earlier a Protestant church for fleeing French refugees. Learn about the history and heritage of this once poverty stricken part of London
  • Golden Boy of Pye Corner
    Why do we have a golden statue of a rather fat young boy in this quiet London Street? It's all to do with The Great Fire of London.
  • This beautiful stone built church was the centre of Victorian life and just across the road from both the bustling market and brewery but also adjacent to perhaps the most dreadful street in London.
  • Soup Kitchen for the Jewish Poor
    Here we can see the first and indeed one of the last Jewish soup kitchens in the East End of London

    Once an industrial market, now a funky market where these is always something to see under the fabulous old Victorian roof.

    From the outside see one of the most beautiful of buildings and learn of how it miraculously avoided destruction in WW2.
  • The Viaduct Tavern
    This old pub is notorious for both being right next to the site of centuries of executions but also in the cellars beneath the streets being holding cells where condemned men would spend their last night on earth.
  • Holy Sepulchre London
    Learn the often rather gruesome history of this fabulous old church.
  • Old Bailey
    Perhaps the oldest court in the Western World. Still the place where the baddest of the bad are put on trial.
  • This small garden and ruins is a memorial garden to The Blitz in WW2.
  • London Bridge
    The modern incarnation of London Bridge with the large ceremonial spike on which the heads of the executed would be stuck as a warning to those entering the city.
  • This small memorial remembers those who gave their lives protecting London and other cities from the terrible bombings and fires of the WW2 Blitz bombings by the Luftwaffe.
  • Millennium Bridge
    20 year old Millennium Bridge doesn't have any gore itself but from here we can see what was once one of the top suicide spots in London and decidedly sexist it was too!
  • Now one of the finest places to see a play but in the time of Shakespeare, this area was the absolute pits. Rather like the Amsterdam of its day... for good or for bad!
  • The Clink Prison Museum
    Not going in the museum itself but the outside is very authentic as it is. We'll learn why this part of London was just so bad.
  • Winchester Palace
    Winchester Palace, mostly destroyed in one of the many huge fires of London. Once the home to the Bishop and we'll find out about his terrible ways just a little bit further on.

  • We finish the tour at the location of an old debtors prison that had such a terrible impact on Charles Dickens.
