Borough, SE1 is one of London's most historic areas, and in this video I'd like to take you on a tour some of its hidden corners; five secret spots which help tell the story of this 2,000 year old district.

Along the way, we'll learn about the Thames ferrymen, connections with Shakespeare and Harvard, the grimly named Crossbones Graveyard and much more...
