FRIDAY 26TH JUNE, 1100 for 1115 departure
It's back! Join me on this highly popular Springtime stroll around the City's hidden
gardens.
Meet point TBF but always a central City location (eg St Paul's, Bank, Moorgate...)
Behind the City of London's seemingly unbroken vistas of concrete and glass lie dozens of secret green havens and hidden spaces, which have played host to some fascinating history. This walk explores the history of gardens which have bloomed in blitzed or ruined churches and Roman ruins, and as part of the City's ceaseless development.
The gardens to be included in the tour will be the ones that are looking their best! but here's some of our previous sites:
Duration: around 110-120 minutes; c. 1.5 miles; some stairs involved.
As ever, we will end up in a pub for lunch/drink for those who wish to carry on chatting! (Not included in price. Please email me asap if you'd like to be included in the LUNCH BOOKING.)

The gardens to be included in the tour will be the ones that are looking their best! but here's some of our previous sites:
- a herbal 'physic' garden created by a livery company
- a beautifully landscaped garden with a 2000-year-old Roman backdrop
- a reflection pool in a new garden framing an iconic city sight
- a blitzed Wren church turned green space - once the final resting place of a warlike Plantagenet Queen
- a gem of a secret garden with a link to a famous crime novelist...
Duration: around 110-120 minutes; c. 1.5 miles; some stairs involved.
