Step back in time to one of the most infamous periods of history. We’ll follow in the footsteps of Thomas Cromwell and the streets and lanes that he’d have known so well. We will see some of the places where Thomas Cromwell worked. Right in the middle of the City are the remains of what were his incredible City of London estate. We will see some of the surviving remnants of Tudor London. We’ll visit places relating to Sir Thomas More, King Henry VIII , Catherine of Aragon and much more. This is a great tour to see parts of London no-one else sees. There’ll be no other tourists around! Join us as we explore the beating heart of the oldest districts in the City and connect with Tudor London. As huge fans of Thomas Cromwell, Tudor history and Wolf Hall, we just knew we had to create this tour. Thomas Cromwell’s Tudor London Walking Tour isn’t just for fans of Wolf Hall. It’s also for anyone with an interest in Thomas Cromwell, the Tudors and of course King Henry VIII too.
This is one of the most prominent tudor facades in London. The original building from 1585 was once the wool staple, where wool was weighed and taxed. It survived the great fire of London, was refaced in the 17th century and restored in the 19th and 20th centuries. The hall was damaged by bombing in 1944.
Thomas Cromwell was elected as a member of Gray's Inn which was and is a lawyers guild and would have been familiar with the paths, gardens and buildings of Gray's Inn. Sometimes closed at weekends.
Step inside the lovely Gray's Inn Chapel which though built for the members of the Inn is open to worship and respectful visitors.
Home of specialist dealers in fine English silver, antiques and objets d'art, housed in underground vaults.
Lincolns Inn is a beautiful and equally prestigious establishment as Greys Inn and on weekdays we might take a peek inside, ( Can be closed at weekends ).
Now a private library building for the prestigious Kings College, this was once a place where Thomas Cromwell had an office.
We will pass through another famous and beautiful legal district in London, much used as filming locations and as settings in many great literary works. ( Can be closed at weekends.)
See the beautiful Temple Church (from the outside) more recently famous for its role in the Da Vinci Code but with a history going back 800 years.
Once the location of a famed Tudor theatre.
From here the plans for the divorce of King Henry VIII and Queen Katherine of Aragon were hatched.
See what small ruins remain of Blackfriars, one of many abbeys and priors that were seized and closed down by King Henry VIII. Whitefriars is nearby too and we will visit that also.
From a short distance away we will marvel at the beautiful symbol of the City of London, St Pauls Cathedral which arose from the ashes of the Great Fire and narrowly escaped destruction in The Blitz.

London blander kongelig ceremoni, museer i verdensklasse og vartegn ved floden med særprægede kvarterer, markeder og parker, man kan gå rundt i.
Themsen binder byen sammen. På dens bredder ligger Parlamentet med Big Ben, Tower of London med kronjuvelerne, Tower Bridge og den lange gåtur langs South Bank forbi London Eye, Shakespeares Globe og Tate Modern. St Paul's Cathedral og Westminster Abbey forankrer den ældre skyline, mens glastårne trænger sig sammen i finansdistriktet.
Top-ranked sights in London: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
