Fancy a leisurely ramble around London’s wartime landmarks?
Not only will you discover the stories behind major bomb sites, underground command centres and proud war memorials, but you'll encounter, along the way, curiosities from the Blitz era that even Londoners don't know about!
What's Included

We meet just outside the entrance to St James's Park tube station (District & Circle lines), directly below 55 Broadway, which is also the headquarters of the London Underground. If it's raining, we meet inside under the Broadway Shopping Mall sign to be precise.
