What we’re about
If you love London, love history and love walking then come join Paul and Tim's Walks and Talks. Paul is an accredited guide, a lecturer who is passionate about sharing the history of London with others.
Tim is a historian, lecturer and author of a best selling guide to London (Walking London's History: 2000 years in 15 walks).
Together, we have been lecturing on London's history and taking people round this wonderful city for over ten years. We have worked with education institutes, museums, London clubs and groups and guided Londoners and tourists alike.
We offer high quality talks on London's history from Whitechapel to White City, from Boudicca to Virginia Woolf. We offer walks (never more than 20 people) to the hidden London where tourists rarely go, and tell stories that they don't hear. This group is for those who love their history but want to explore it in a non-scholarly fashion with friendly and relaxed people, hopefully sharing a meal, a drink and good conversation.

MEET: 10.45 for tea at Caffe Nero 333 High Holborn
or
11.15 just outside for the start of the walk.Many churches in the Square Mile are Wren's fine work but what about the many that pre date him or some splendid efforts that came after him?
On this walk we'll look at hidden gems that have somehow lingered and held on despite war, fire and just general wear and tear. We'll see how you identify those tell tale signs that give the age of the building away.
Join me on this tour of medieval remnants and some splendid 18th century places of worship. Each has their own stories to tell of those worshipped and are buried here, who held out here and led communities here.
