  • Longer description

    Hidden amongst the bricks and concrete of the City of London, the oldest part of London and today the financial district, you can find oases of greenery and explosions of colour, as long as
    you know where to look!  The tour will explore some of the unique gardens in the City, including historic graveyards with peaceful lawns, church gardens and beautiful gardens unintentionally created by the Blitz of World War Two. 

    Led by Caroline Piper who loves to be ‘off the beaten track’.
