Event Details

Through Cloth Fair to Smithfield, you will hear tales of hauntings, executions, fairs and the meat market.  We will walk through the market's aptly named Grand Avenue to Cowcross Street and on to Bleeding Heart Yard with another gory story. Visit the cherry tree under which Elizabeth I danced with her favourite, Sir Christopher Hatton and the historic church where Henry VIII celebrated his marriage to Katherine of Aragon.
