Join author and professional walking guide, Ed Glinert, for an insightful and atmospheric walk around the secrets of London’s Covent Garden.
Ed will reveal secret spots on a wide range of subjects: see where the first condoms were sold in the 17th century; discover Cold War bunkers and the Communist Party HQ; and hear how Lawrence of Arabia in disguise was refused entry to the army on Henrietta Street.
Ed Glinert was born in Dalston, London. He has written for Private Eye, Radio Times and London's Time Out, and is the author of The London Compendium, Literary London and East End Chronicles. He leads a variety of walks for a major London walking tours company.
