Sean Mitchell offers tours that read
the buildings of the City of London
for the passion and pathos of the history of
ideas.
A
two-and-a-half hour walking tour with a break from St. Paul’s
Cathedral to Christchurch
Spitalfields with London Blue Badge Guide Sean Mitchell
Why does London have more different styles of buildings right next to each other than any other city in the world?
Why are there narrow, crooked, medieval-style streets surrounded by 21st century buildings in the City of London?
What was ‘the Battle of the Styles’ between Victorian
Gothic and classicism and which building resolved that conflict 100
years before anyone realised there was a battle?
The Architecture and Ideas Tour will answer all these questions and more.
