July 3rd - On this day in 1322, hundreds of
needy poor people were crushed to death in a rush to beg food and money at the
gates of Blackfriars’ (Dominican) Priory.
The site of the Blackfriars’
(Dominican) Priory, and later Theatre, is visited on our Wednesday afternoon
“St Paul’s to Westminster Abbey – Priories, Palaces and Parliament” and Friday
morning “London Wall – A Story of Survival” walks.
