Introduction:
I've been a Londoner for thirty years and love its history, heritage and vibrancy. I would love to show you round London whether you would like a highlights tour with photo stops or an in-depth look at some of our amazing sights.
I am a barrister (advocate) - I am fortunate to live and work (when I'm not guiding) in the heart of the City in a lawyers' oasis called the Temple. I am always happy to show people round legal London.
I have a degree in history and law from Cambridge (Christ's College).
England's historic buildings are hugely important to me. I have an MA in architectural history (from the world leading Courtauld Institute of Art) specialising in medieval Gothic buildings such as Westminster Abbey) and I am a trustee/board member of a number of heritage charities committed to saving, exploring and promoting our wonderful churches, castles and landscape. I love London's wonderful mix of old and new buildings.
London's art galleries are my speciality. My favourite work of art is usually the one that I am looking at! The National Gallery, Wallace Collection, Tate Modern and Tate Britain are waiting to be discovered.
