Holborn: My Favorite Place to Wander


London's oldest shop building. This little place really got hold of my imagination. Apparently, it's dubious that this little shop was really the inspiration for Charles Dickens's story The Old Curiosity Shop, but who knows? (Info drawn from The Rough Guide to London.)

The House of Thomas More

Apparently this lady (Margaret MacDonald) was quite a woman. Click on the photo to read the inscription.


This beautiful brick building occupies one of the corners in Holborn. If you look closely, you can see that it was raining when I took these photos.
