London History Trails - Bloomsbury

About

A leisurely self-guided walking tour through the Bloomsbury area of London. Every couple of minutes you'll be given a quiz question to unlock the next stage of the walk, with the answer to be found somewhere near you. Along the way you'll pass through plenty of quiet green spaces, discover corners of Bloomsbury, and uncover the unexpected history of some of the women who lived there - from the “Spy Princess” Noor Inayat Khan, to surgery pioneer Louisa Brandeth Aldrich-Blake and the novelist Virginia Woolf. You'll pass through a few parks and gardens, some of which close in the evenings, so we recommend this starting walk between 9:30am and 4pm, to avoid these places being closed when you arrive. We've done our best to make sure this walk is both enjoyable and safe, but some risks do remain, such as crossing smaller roads. Your use of this self-guided trail is at your own risk and we shall not be held liable under any circumstances for any matter arising out of your participation.
