Ever wondered if Cheapside really is cheap, what you do in Threadneedle Street, or who the knights of Knightsbridge were?
Did you know that Piccadilly is actually an insult? And that Euston Road was built because there were too many cows on Oxford Street? Or that the River Fleet was covered over partly because of a drunken butcher? Take a trip down narrow lanes\and through cobbled streets and crowded markets to discover the meanings behind the city's place names. Meet forgotten residents whose names survive in the places where they lived and uncover tales from London's murky past that have shaped the modern city.

If you have ever wanted to peel back the layers of history and discover the people, events and stories that shaped London, then come on a journey that willreveal thecity in a new light.
