Aldgate In Camera: Visions of Aldgate through the ages - Guided walking tour

Join City of London guides for a tour of London's East end through the ages.

Aldgate In Camera is a public exhibition of historical photographs displayed across the area, as close as possible to the point of view of the photographer; juxtaposing Aldgate past and present.

Over forty historical images have been sourced from and shared by London Metropolitan Archives, Bishopsgate Institute, Guildhall Library, Tower Hamlets Archives, organisations, businesses and individuals.

The images have been mounted on sites public and private: in shop windows, on business walls, on street furniture, fences and carriageways; illuminating Aldgate’s ever-changing landscape and providing a viewpoint into the fascinating history of one of London’s most diverse areas.

Please note: We may be able to accommodate cash-paying customers without reservations; however, walk-up numbers are limited so we advise booking in advance to guarantee your place.
