For two and a half centuries the elegant terraces and squares of Holborn, Bloomsbury and St Pancras have played host to the grandeur of the Royal College of Surgeons, hospitals for sick children and poor immigrants, and the homes of figures such as Charles Darwin and Virginia Woolf. This two-hour walk reveals the hidden history of London's medical quarter.

Please note this tour starts from Holborn tube station and ends at Wellcome Collection.

This is an adapted version of a walk published in 'Medical London: City of diseases, city of cures'. For more on the book, visit the Medical London website.
