Highlights of Westminster with Blue Badge guide Laurence

Meet St James' Park Underground Station , Broadway exit opposite the Conrad HotelMeet @ 11-11.10Fee £15So you think you know Westminster? Think again!How about those odd sculptures on the tube station? Or the juvenile prison? How about the bloke who is buried standing up? Or the man whose body was dug up from the Abbey? (Actually there are two!) Why is it called Big Ben and can we even see it?Lots of questions and we can walk up a street named after a palace, see where a king was executed, find out why its called Downing Street and where Henry V111 had one of his many wine cellars.What else..........................? Oh yes! We'll see where the original Royal Mews was(covered by a very famous London spot now), learn about the misnamed statue at Piccadilly and what was originally on the site of Leicester Square - yes i know you can Google it!!!There's some other bits too but if you want to know , well ....just come along!Please note that at traffic lights i will always wait for the green man signal- if there is one -and that at other crossings and on the streets generally attendees need to be vigilant.Host Laurence 07889 298573
