A free interactive guide to London and its history, featuring over 100 famous, quirky and vanished locations.

Visiting London, or think you already know everything about it? Then think again – theres always something new to learn about London!

This app includes:

Explorer: view over 100 London locations alphabetically, or by those nearest to you. Interact with historic maps of each location, and then view the location mapped on the London of today. Read about the history of each place and interact with historic and contemporary images. Search for anything that interests you – for example, search for "Shakespeare" to find any locations in the app associated with Shakespeare.

Map Explorer: view the same locations as in the Explorer, but in an interactive map format instead. Tap on a location to explore it in more detail.

Old Maps: explore three historic maps of London – Roman London, London in around 1563 (the time of Queen Elizabeth I) and Hollars beautiful map of London in the 17th century.
