  1. St Sepulchre

    St Sepulchre is the largest parish church in the City of London. It is mentioned in the nursery rhythm “Oranges and Lemons” in the line “When will you pay me? Say the bells at Old Bailey”.

    It’s built in the gothic style and is easily recognisable with its tower topped with four oversized pinnacles.

    Inside the 150ft/ 45m long nave with its tall classical Tusan columns and large windows provides the church with a grand and spacious interior. 

  2.  The Great Hall

    We enjoyed a visit to The Making of Harry Potter at the Warner Bros Studios, the week before the royal visit on Friday 26th April by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Harry and J.R. Rowling, and here's a blog with just a few photos from our trip. The studios were acquired by Warner Bros. in 2000 and is where all eight Harry Potter films, based on the books by J. K. Rowling,were made. The studios are built on the site of a former aircraft factory.

    The tour starts with a film show before the doors open and lead you into the Great Hall. This is just as magnificant as you would expect it to be both in sheer scale and decoration.
