Before your tour you can enjoy Fish & Chips or other price equivalent dishes at Poppies just yards from where Annie Chapman was murdered.
Then to walk off your meal, you can join us for a 2.15 hours tour about the murders committed by Jack the Ripper with photos of victims, crime scenes, newspaper reports and the local streets in 1888 all shown clearly on a 14" tablet!
The introduction takes place outside St Botolph's Church known as the Prostitutes Church because girls used to solicit on the island where it stood.
Moving round to the square beside the church. You then have a description of what life was like in the poverty stricken overcrowded of Whitechapel in 1888. The squalor, crime and degradation of the people living on the breadline.
Mitre Street just inside the City boundary is the stop about Elizabeth Stride (Long Liz) the 1st victim killed by Jack on the night of the double event. Also, we will move a few yards to talk about the death of Catherine Eddowes killed only 45mins later right here!
