Objects that are passed everyday without a second glance come alive in this little guide for both the visitor or the most seasoned Londoner; the statue of Charles I at Charing Cross which was melted down by a blacksmith after his execution - or was it? Or the Aldgate Pump with its strange tasting water - where did it come from originally? Around every corner in London there is a history to be told, and John Wittich guides us through hundreds of London curiosities, arranged in chapters which make interesting walks for exploring certain parts of London.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45083309146263,"sku":"9780747807605","price":263.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780747807605.webp?v=1767635610","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/discovering-london-curiosities-9780747807605","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
