The Monks and Murder: Blackfriars to Smithfield

Price: £200 per group

Tour Duration: 90 mins

Group Size​: No Limit

Tour Details

The Black Friar pub where we start has some of the most jaw-dropping artistic design you will ever see in a pub, but the stories you will hear throughout this walk on the medieval streets of London Town will leave you equally “gobsmacked” (=slang for surprised!). Dark tales of monkish goings on and the murder and gore of London’s execution sites mix with some fascinating alleyways and end at the historic Smithfield market – a site that is about to change dramatically – so get in quick !

Start: Blackfriars Bridge

Finish: Farringdon
