Southwark Cathedral and Borough Market. Side by side and two of the oldest sites in Southwark. The first known reference to Borough Market was in 1276 and there’s been a religious building on the site of Southwark Cathedral since at least 1106!

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! 💪 This is 15 Upper Mall in Hammersmith and the blue plaque on the outside is dedicated to Thomas Cobden-Sanderson, involved in the founding of the Doves Bindery and Press. We’re not talking about him today, however! I want to tell you about his wife, Anne, who would have lived here as well, but is not featured on the plaque.
