Martyrs, Meat and Medicine: The Bl**dy History of Smithfield (3778)
Farringdon Station
Description
Smithfield is maybe the bloodiest location in the capital, with executions including William "Braveheart" Wallace, 16th century religious heretics and the peasant rebellion leader Wat Tyler. Dscover these stories together with the meat market itself, the last remaining City wholesale market and St Bart's Hospital. But there is also the tranquility of the churchyard at St. Bartholomew's the Great, maybe a peek at St Bartholomew the Less and several favourite movie locations including Four Weddings and a Funeral, Last Orders and 'that' Royal Wedding video.
