About

Welcome.  Thank you for visiting ‘Essential London’.

‘Essential London’ explains the culture and history of London – by exploring the best sights, hidden gems and areas that are off the beaten track.

Essential London is researched, written and photographed by me. I’m a lecturer in management, a history writer and, unexpectedly, now a web designer in WordPress!


I began to build Essential London in 2017, mainly to get me through the City of London and City of Westminster guiding exams and then my MA in Historical Research – but now seeking to provide interesting content for residents of, and visitors to, this great city.

I hope you enjoy your visit to Essential London – and that you recommend http://www.essentialldn.com on your website and social media. Thank you!
