It is said that St Brides was the inspiration for the first ever tiered wedding cake. Created by apprentice baker William Rich in the 1700s.
Another great tour with Steve. We did this yesterday and while I know the area well there was plenty of interesting stuff highlighted that I was unaware of.

Having enjoyed the wonderful Hammersmith to Chiswick tour. I was delighted to find Steve’s tour exploring the opposite direction along the majestic River Thames. Steve is a gifted storyteller and I have learned so much about London, and the Thames’s industrial heritage. Thank you Steve and Voicemap. Now time for a beer!
