About this Event

Donne was born in Bread Street in the City of London, within the sound of Bow Bells and very near St Paul’s Cathedral where he became Dean. His geographical journey was quite short; his spiritual one a bit more complex. Join City of London Guide & Lecturer Jill Finch to follow in Donne’s footsteps through the dangerous streets of 16th and 17th century London.

Meet by the John Smith statue in St Mary le Bow churchyard, just off Cheapside.
