Walk: Hangings, Burnings & Hauntings

This sinister walk led by Pete Smith, starting from the statue of Queen Anne at the east end of St Paul’s Cathedral, follows a grim and bloodstained route. On your way you may meet two ghostly murderesses and the loathsome Black Dog of Newgate. You will certainly discover the City’s most haunted pub, a street where doctors and grave robbers traded in dead bodies and a place notorious for hangings, burnings and torture.

Meet at the statue of Queen Anne at the east end of St Paul’s Cathedral (outside the main entrance)
