CITY OF LONDON:
Take an educational walk through the 'Square Mile' in the City of London, identifying homes, offices, properties, land, and speaking about people and personalities that have had a connection with (then) British Guiana.
Beginning at the Mark Street Gardens (Luke and Mark Street) and ending at the Bank Tube Station, the trail will touch on the lives of 12 families/individuals that owned enslaved Africans. Hear about the compensation paid to most after manumission, which amounted to millions of pounds in today's money.
