Welcome to the London History Blog

Thanks for stopping by! This blog is your home for the weird, wonderful, and often completely ridiculous stories from London’s past. Whether it’s forgotten Tube stations, bizarre Victorian inventions, ghostly goings-on, or strange laws that somehow still exist.

If it’s quirky, curious, or just plain bonkers, you’ll find it here.

London has nearly 2,000 years of history packed into its streets, tunnels, rooftops and ruins — and most of it isn’t what you learned in school. This blog aims to amuse, intrigue and surprise you with stories that are as entertaining as they are true.

So whether you’re a local, a history buff, or just here to kill five minutes at work (we don’t judge), dive in and explore London like you’ve never seen it before.
