About this Event

Fortified with Château Thames Embankment, and overseen by She Who Must Be Obeyed, Rumpole of the Bailey devotes his time to keeping errant humanity out of chokey.

Join me to explore Rumpole’s legal world through readings from John Mortimer’s stories!

Meet me outside the Magpie and Stump on Old Bailey, opposite the Central Criminal Court. The nearest stations are St Paul's Underground Station (Central Line) and City Thameslink.

The walk will finish approximately two hours later at the Inner Temple, near Blackfriars and Temple Stations.
