Robinson's Quest

Legendary Londinium

Seventeen stops through the City of London and the streets just beyond its western edge, following the old road out toward Westminster. Dragons that were never boundary markers, a cat with a bill for oysters, a maypole that became a telescope, and an Egyptian obelisk named for the wrong queen — this is a walk through the stories London tells about itself, and what the record says when you check them. Roughly 5 km and half a day.
