Brass Plates and Botox – ‘Kings Speech’, Tour of Harley Street
The discreet world of private medicine is uncovered in the elegant Harley and Wimpole Street. How did this evolve in the 19th Century in the impossibly wealthy Howard de Walden Estate. All will be revealed as will the biggest political scandal of the 20th Century. Mum’s the word until you join the tour! Stammering dukes, speechless Emperors and distraught divas sought cures behind these great mahogany doors. Even the Beatles make an appearance.
Great walk. And – always on our medical London Walks – the big plus: they’re guided by a doctor, a Public Health Physician.
This walk is offered as part of London Walks. You can check their website for times and dates by clicking here. Or email Barry and he will reply with the information.
