Join Free Tours by Foot on a journey behind one of London's busiest thoroughfares - The Strand. London's hidden gems are tucked mere metres away from the city's crowds and Sinead is here to take you there. View a hidden Georgian neighbourhood, the former home of an American Founding Father, stand on the site of a former graveyard and glimpse the location of London's Roman baths as well as finding out where exactly you can meet Sinead!
You'll see the home of one of London's strangest museums, get up close to a disused Underground Station (ghost station), see the beautiful cherry blossoms at St. Mary-le-Strand and go inside The King's Chapel of St John the Baptist in the Precinct of the Savoy - better known as the Savoy Chapel - a pre-reformation hidden treasure.
This walk will take you through time with Roman ruins, Medieval sites of worship, Georgian townhouses and to the modern campus of one the most prestigious universities in the United Kingdom.
Come with Free Tours by Foot as we explore all the secrets of the Strand!

Thanx for all your videos that helped us to get a lovely week in London when celebrating our birthdays. Every day we explored a new area and everywhere we find houses and walks that we had seen in your videos, and in Twining´s tea shop you gave us the biggest surprise when you entered the shop, more beautiful than ever and so graceful. Thanx for the photo moment and thanx to your lovely friends that kindly tolerated 2 flabbergasted swedes, Mikael and Mattias All our love 🥰

Thank you again you guys

Thanks Sinead another wonderful video! It's amazing what you can find on the backstreets of a major city. One of the thinks I found most interesting when I was in London was the different kinds of architecture. London is such a beautiful city

Sinead
I'm so pleased to see another of Sinead's fabulous tours!
I first found these tours when I tripped over the Jack the Ripper tour and have watched several others as well.
I love this tour because it is exactly the sort of thing I love to do when I visit new places.
When I first visited London years ago, I walked from Whitechapel to Baker Street one day, just looking at things.
I looked in shops, visited pubs and had a fabulous time just seeing what sorts of things were along the way.
Wonderful!
So pleased you enjoyed it!
I'm so glad to see you again! You are always so interesting to listen to. Thank you for this. ❤
Our pleasure, as always, Abby!
I could listen to you all day Sinéad thank you for another great Tour 😊😊
What a wonderful thing to say
Thank you
Sinead
I love learning new aspects of London.
We love to share them with you :)
Great vlog as usual Sinead, I''m a Londoner born and bred and the way you dig up it's history is truly amazing.
Thank you Mick
From a Londoner this is the highest compliment

Thank you Sinead for another lovely, fun tour! Looking forward, as always to the next one. 😃❤

Thanks for a very interesting tour. As an American living in Ireland, I've wanted to visit London and Windsor and have a list of sites I'd like to see. But thanks to this video I'm including Benjamin Franklin's residence!
Anytime you come over am always available x
@@FreeToursbyFootLondon I will definitely keep that in mind!

There are many, many of we Americans descended from Edward I & Eleanor (myself included), thanks for sharing that. Would love to see the eye glasses museum, very cool. Didn’t Pepys write a lot about the plague? Love your tours, well done.
Pepys diary about The Great Fire is our encyclopaedia
Must look up his writings on The Plague
Sinead
Great job Sinead. Really enjoyed the tour ❤

Interesting and informative. When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life” - so said Samuel Johnson to his friend and biographer James Boswell.

Another fascinating tour of such a fascinating city. I am very impressed by Sinead's knowledge of present-day London as well as the colorful history of the city. Even on a gray day in late March, London is beautiful. Greetings from the southwestern USA and thank you once again!
Thank you sincerely for such a wonderful comment
Sinead
Ben Franklin's house on Craven Street is #36, the one with the brown door, not the red one at #37.
Thank you
@@FreeToursbyFootLondon You're welcome. I enjoy your videos very much, please keep up the great work you're doing.
Love hearing her explain things !
Thank you Rene

You give the best tours sinead x
Thank you sincerely Mark

Sinead
@@FreeToursbyFootLondon when I watch your vids, I actually absorb the information
This was excellent!
So pleased you enjoyed it
Sinead
Thanks for this Sinead. Btw, you did know you were filming Benjamin Franklin's neighbours house? Benjamin Franklin lived in 36 Craven Street (the brown door).
Somebody else pointed this one out too - thank you for the correction!
Very interesting. Always a pleasure to watch you.
Thank you lovely
Means the world
Wonderful tours Sinead Thanks. Saw the ' Walk with Tim ' Jack the Ripper ' tour. - Thought you were great!
Think the royal connection is plausible! The madness you know & the attempted clean up! Most interesting
story. So I will subscribe from now on.
I lived in London 1990 - 2010. Liked China Town. I worked my way through & had a miracle job for some W1. Christian Armenians & a miracle flat in York St. W1. - it was cheap in the nineties & when I needed it. Jesus is good & provided! Thanks for that Lord!! I started with Icthus Church & Christian house share in New Oxford St.
& finished up, after the flat of 11 years @ a pub - The Wargrave - Lord Wargrave now I believe, with Irish Garry. We had a lot of fun there with the team. He moved from W1. so I returned to the South West. He is now at the Monkey Puzzle Pub in Sussex Gdns. W2. London has so much history. Bless for now.
Thanks for sharing!
❤❤Sinead woderful as usual ❤❤
Great tour as always! Fun fact, the alleyway to the left of the Queens Chapel is where Bob Dylan filmed the famous Subterranean Homesick Blues video with Allen Ginsburg
Omg I should have known this what amazing info
I did read this somewhere thank you
Sinead
Very interesting. There's a replacement Eleanor Cross in my hometown but it's much more modern and nothing as beautiful as the one at Charing Cross you showed.
How interesting where your hometown
Was it en route from Lincoln to Westminster Abbey
Sinead

Thanx Sinead for sharing

Siinead as usual tour content is on Point thank yiu. When are you having your next Live i really enjoyed tour last one if was great fun 😊 Have a lovely easter weekend ❤
We hope you had a fantastic weekend, too!
Hiya Sinead,catching up on some visits with you today. Yay for the pub tours yes more if possible. Do have a couple of them here but nothing beats a pub lunch on Princess st Edinburgh with my Auntie Peggy many years ago. Thanx for memory Take care stay safe always
Oh are you planning on any lives in future if so keep us posted. Blessings luv Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
Definitely more lives to come, Beverley :) We love the memory of pub lunch with your Auntie! x
@@FreeToursbyFootLondon Appreciate your response. 🇨🇦🐝
Thanks!
Thank you Sinead, loved the history and the tour. You always make everything so interesting. 💕🇦🇺
Thank you Liz
You’re always such a great supporter of the channel
Sinead
Around teh 15 minute you mentioned an old Pub tour, that sounds great!
I should definitely do one x
Sinead
That was a rare sight today, a phone box with an actual phone. Doesn't BT or whatever they call themselves now realise that often mobile masts and landlines connected by optical cables don't work in a power outage and one needs a copper wire connected phone to still be able to make a call.
Not all of them work Tony
They are listed buildings so will always be there
Most are now WiFi spots but thank for they’re protected
Thanks
This was brilliant thanks sinead xx
Always a pleasure Sabrina

18:00 what a difference the lack of vehicles makes. I remember St. Mary-le-Strand isolated on its island amid raucous traffic. Thank you for the pleasant and very knowledgeable tour.
We are definitely enjoying the new layout!

I would love to see a tour of all the places we can't visit, but I'm not sure how you would go about it. Although, there were lights on inside that station- someone is home!
Where would you like to see ?
Oh great fun.
Im breaking open my M&M"s and stsrting the party.
Hello my lovely
Hope your well
Happy Easter x
Sinead
@@FreeToursbyFootLondon Happy Easter to you too.
Ill be bringing some Ex Military to London next month and that old pubs tour would be fantastic.
Save us doing the Circle line pub crawl.
Ill let you know when and we will book.
Though warnings it might have to be an all day booking as I think this could get messy.

Happy Easter lovely x
I went to the Franklin Museum many years ago. I do recall that they were having trouble raising funds for the restoration of the building because the British are not familiar with him, even though the British use many of the items Franklin invented. For example, bifocals, swimming flippers or fins, the lightning rod, the odometer, Franklin Stove and urinary catheter. Also, if you visit St. Bartholomew the Great, behind the main alter was the first printing room that Franklin used. In Philadelphia, where I live, he created the first library, the first zoo and the first hospital. He lived in London for many years and was quite the celebrity. Glad you showed this in your tour - just wished you said more about him. Jane Philadelphia
With such incredible information provided Jane
I will certainly look into a much more detailed tour on Franklin
Thank you for the incredible insight
Sinead
Great information lived in london all my life and every day I hear something new ❤
Aw, we love to get approval from our London locals :)
We will be back in London in Sept!!!
We hope to see you!
