Take a Trip Around the Monopoly Board
Thu, 10 Oct
|St Johns Church
Our tour will visit the famous streets on the London Monoply board from the lowly browns of Old Kent Road or Whitechapel to the lofty purples of Park Lane or Mayfair. However, like the game itself, our stops will be decided on the day with the luck of the dice.

About the event
A walk around the Monopoly board provides a fascinating glimpse of London and how it has evolved. Jack the Ripper and Whitechapel, the Bow Street Runners, the Inns of Court on the Strand and the lost mansions of Park Lane. The Monopoly board provides a wonderful tapestry of London through the ages.   We  will discover the origins of the board game itself, and see what it would look like today.
We will be in the capable hands of Chris Green, London Blue Badge Guide, who will lead the tour.
