”No area
in London is changing so fast and yet retaining its architectural
distinction. In its early days it revolved around monastic
institutes ...... but from the later 17th century as
the Huguenots and then the Italians moved in, Clerkenwell
became a center of clock making, printing & jewellery.”
Written by Richard Tames who is a qualified
London Blue Badge tourist guide, this is an extremely readable
book whether you have an interest in the area or not |
