Description
Join Lianne as you uncover the fascinating story of how power in the City has shifted over its 2000 history. From Roman rule to the modern financial powerhouse it is today, the City has been shaped by an ongoing battle for influence.
Yet while the balance of power has continually shifted, commerce and trade has always remained the lifeblood of the City. From medieval marketplaces and guilds, to global financial institutions, money has always talked, often determining who truly holds the reins of power.
It’s a tale of two cities, power struggles between Monarchs and the City grandees, and the hidden world of those who quietly shaped its fortunes.
Reviews
An excellent "City of London" Walk
This was a new approach, for me, to the City of London. We were not just shown some highlights of the area but they were linked to a very clear narrative explaining the growth and development of the City of London and it's place in the history of Britain.
Lianne was an excellent guide, very clear in her delivery but also very interesting and professional. Thoroughly recommended
