| Walk Description: | Explore the ancient City’s shadowy back streets and dimly lit alleys after hours. The very street names - Aldersgate, Cloth Fair, Charterhouse, Threadneedle – reveal the medieval past. This is the hour when the ‘She Wolf of France’ glides through the churchyard, when the dark figure on Newgate wall rattles his chains, the hour when the ‘Black Nun’ keeps alonely vigil, and something inexpressibly evil lurks behind a tiny window. |
