How many streets are there in the City of London? This is the question that we seek to answer on this London historic walk. It's not as straightforward as you may think and reveals one of the many anomalies in the Square Mile.
We start at the Angel, Islington then go to Owens Fields, Friend Street, Paget Street, Rawstorne Street, Goswell Road, and Old Street.
We discover where the Christmas Cracker was invented and the story of the first 4-minute mile, ran in 1770.
