City Breaks

London Episode 07 Whitehall and Trafalgar Square


Listen Later

This episode takes you on a stroll through the very heart of London from Parliament Square along Whitehall to Trafalgar Square.  We pause at the Cabinet War Rooms, the underground maze from which Churchill directed operations in World War 2, then make three further visits: to the Banqueting House, scene of the only beheading of an English king, the National Gallery and the Portrait Gallery.
