I wandered into one of them and brought back a few snapshots....
...and something tells me they hide more than a few stories.
I'll be going back for more.

" The French term 'Flâneur' refers to the 'wanderer', the 'stroller' in the City - the 'observer', in one sense and the 'voyeur', in another - one who 'walks the City in order to experience it' (Charles Baudelaire).
The Flaneurbanite documents the stories by this modern day act of flânerie -
curious, covert, yet candid, she walks the City and tells the stories - the many legends, big and small, told and untold, hidden under its many layers. "

Super. Dig deep. But you will end up writing historical novels.
I love the first picture.
When you come back for more, do get in touch. I'm about sixty seconds away from Spitalfields, and if I'm not mistaken I think one of Jack the Ripper's victims was murdered, or at least found, in Parliament Court.
@mumbai paused: Perhaps :)
@Sanjana M: Thank you! That one's my personal favourite too.
@Paul Nixon: So you're finally back in Londinium! Send me your contacts and I'll get in touch next time I'm in the East End.
love the opening shot!
Love these!

@Anonymous: Thank you! Wish you'd reveal yourself or leave a name :)
