Silver Sunday : West Smithfield Stroll - Thursday 22 October

West Smithfield, originally without but now within. A quick saunter along Cowcross and through the Cathedral to meat. We are going to explore Smoothfield , Sedfield , Smithfield. About 900 years of History in West Smithfield to be precise. Let us take a stroll around the West Smithfield rotunda taking in Jones , Askew , Rahere , Rogers , Tyler , Lopez , Wallace and many more. Find out about the oldest parish church, a 900 year old Hospital and Livery companies. We will also answer the question of what have the Worshipful Company of Butchers been doing since 1343?

Once you have experienced your tour you will be able to say you have seen:

  • St Bartholomew the Great
  • Sir William Wallace memorial
  • First terminus 1863

And so much more!
