Tim’s walks: wandering round the Gherkin
What it is
Come and join Tim on a micro-exploration of the streets surrounding the Gherkin and discover 2000 years of history in a tiny area of London.
While we’ll never stray more than a few hundred yards from the iconic building there’s a wealth of history from Roman graves, medieval churches, Tudor riots, a bit of Oliver Cromwell, Victorian cholera, Edwardian outrages and some of the greatest examples of modern architecture.
We won’t walk far but we will see so much.
We meet at the Pret just opposite the Gherkin from 19.45 to start walking at 11.
