Seen the West End and the classic London sights? Want to see something less obvious but just as fascinating? Come with me to the history-rich heart of London, where the Roman then medieval capital stayed behind the city walls for almost two millennia. This is where the extraordinary skyscrapers of new 'Wall Street' London disrupt the traditional skyline and dominate the view. See how their surfaces create all kinds of photographic possibilities even as they jostle with neighbouring buildings that go back hundreds or even thousands of years. I'm not a photographer, but with my phone I've wandered these streets for more than a decade, boggling at the bold designs that divide Londoners who can't decide whether to love or hate them. Take a look at some of the shots I've got in the gallery and I'll explain how I got them. I'll show you some quirky hidden locations you'd never find on your own, where you could imagine yourself alone amid the hustle and bustle of the main drag and international finance.
We'll swing by at least one viewing platform to see the City from above. Start at Liverpool Street train station then we'll wander my specially devised 'quirky trail' towards the Tower of London. If you prefer, en route we can divert to the Street Art of Brick Lane for a gritty contrast to the polished steel and medieval stone of the City. The tour is only two hours but we'll go deep and get lost in the backways of this unique part of London.
