A London walk through some of the intriguing history of Clapham, from the tunnels, Clapham Common and the Old Town. An area rich with London history, we also visit the church associated with the Clapham Sect, a Roman altar stone, the place where Samuel Pepys lived in his final years, some great blue plaques, the area that became an artists' community in Rectory Gardens. We also look for Cromwell Lodge and go to a radical bookshop.
