    My company's office is on Bishopsgate, and inspired by your videos I always take the long route from my hotel to the office when I'm working there. I got up early last month and heard the bells of the Dutch church leading me to it as I walked past that alleyway - a magical sound

    I’m soon to be 53 and my dad (30 years in the met 1950-1970) is 100 years old now. His mum died when he was 9 and I recently went to St Giles church to see the font in which she was baptised. Churches really connect us to our forbears and I value your church videos. Thanks John.

    Great idea to do a series on the livery companies. September's London Open House is a great time to get a look in the livery halls. I think a walking tour around Guildhall would make an interesting episode of those halls lost in the Blitz.

    A most enjoyable walk, John. Worth mentioning that Austin Friars was the location of a palatial mansion built by and for Thomas Cromwell, probably one of the most influential and controversial political figures of Henry VIII's reign. The corner of Throgmorton and Old Broad Street marks the exact site.

    Wonderful video n the series. My first job in the City as a messenger was in Copthal Avenue and I knew these streets and alleys better than most cab drivers. I still walk from Liverpool Street to Fleet Street 3 times a week and always choose a different route to explore and see what (if anything) has changed. Looking forward to the next.

    my mum and all before were all born and lived poor lives in the City - EC1 1890s onwards - I myself born at Barts. I feel my heart and soul tugged just knowing my ancestors lived and walked these streets.
    During WWII, Not evacuated, my mum and her kin lived through the blitz (and doodlebugs!). My great uncle would take out the bodies from the bombed streets including around the Barbican. Thank you for this video

    Now you see, THIS is why I like coming along with you on these walks (via TH-cam, that is), you seem to discover bits of The City that even London had forgotten it had. Thank you as always for your efforts. Very much appreciated.
    Also great to see you in the Filly Brook last night for the talk, both The Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it, her particularly since this was her childhood home and she knew exactly where you were talking about throughout it. Looking forward to the next one.

Years of walking past these buildings in my younger days growing up there history was never an interest then for me as my life was so exciting. Now as an old granny and living in Aystralia I find it fascinating and enjoyable to learn about, these old buildings and Churches are beautiful. Thank you John for this amazing walk. 💕🇦🇺

    I'll have to watch this again as I got called away so I missed some. The City of London may be only a square mile but it feels as big as Texas when you've taken a wrong turn and every step you know is taking you further away from your goal! Happened to me and Google maps was no help as it wont keep still and the blue dot jumps about and it gets worse! Your films are mystical and eleagic. Somehow you have the gift to summon the spirits - of the past,of history, of the genius loci,not everyone can do that.

      @@JohnRogersWalks I believe the father was a Bill Sticker, although these old certificates (this one was for a child’s baptism as St Giles without Cripplegate. It’s the church in the Barbican) are tricky to read. From what I’ve found, Kings Arms Yard was probably low quality slum type housing at the time.

    St Margaret's Lothbury is indeed a fine church, not least because it's the repository of so much salvage from lost churches; I have a memory of taking part in a chamber concert in there, way back.
    All these subjects, churches, lost rivers, livery companies and so on are each like a hidden map of London, if we had a way in which we could superimpose them, to form a kind of 'mental matrix', that would be great, but I fear the only way to do that would be to have the experience and intellect of someone like yourself or Iain Sinclair, so I guess you guys will just have to do it for us!
    Really enjoyable and informative as ever, and, as I say, however planned they may be, these central London films really do have a sense of fluidity, unforced and spontaneous; you have practiced! As they say in that London, "you've done this before, John!" 🌟👍

    Organ recitals at St Margaret Lothbury every Thursday lunchtime, usually by the redoubtable Richard Townend. Plenty of opportunity to admire the wood screen! BTW Wren favoured plain glass windows to maximise light in contrast to the gloomy medieval buildings they replaced. Many of the stained glass windows in his churches must have been later additions. There is one church due to undergo restoration where the stained glass will revert to plain, which one evades me at the moment. Keep up the good work John!

    If you walked back to Liverpool Street from Moorgate along Eldon Street you would have walked right past St Mary Moorfields, the only Roman Catholic church within the Square Mile. You have to know it is there, as it does not look anything like a church at all from outside. That's not the only non-CofE church in the City either. There is also Capeli Cymraeg Llundain, a Welsh presbyterian church, also known as the Welsh Jewin Church, in Fann Street. So, two more for your perpetual list. As always, a cracking video!

    Topical idea for you John: take a look at Glastonbury festival from a psychogeography perspective. There are all manner of nooks and crannies which have developed over the decades where you can look behind an apparently bland, commercial facade and find some interesting 'history.' Example: if you do a bit of research on mazes, you'll find there's a whole bunch of science and maths behind them and that Glastonbury festival used to have its own one, which was based on one at another free festival in the UK's oldest continuously-inhabited home...
