London-Walking Tour

Hosted by the Cambridge Society of London

Join the Cambridge Society of London and learn more about the historic city of London.

Departing Time: Friday, 27 July 2020, 6.00 pm GMT

Duration: 3 hours

Meeting point: At St Paul’s tube station in front of Café Nero

Open to: Alumni and guests

The City of London is where London began, almost 2,000 years ago, as Roman Londinium. Today it is the financial “square mile”, home to the Bank of England and numerous banks and financial services companies.

This tour focuses on the City’s history and the legacy of that history in its unique governance with its own Lord Mayor and Corporation. We will learn how these institutions evolved since the 12th century, their ancient traditions and their responsibilities today.

Of course, we will also include Roman remains, hidden City gardens, Victorian markets, and historic pubs and find out what makes a cockney (or true Londoner).
