ENCHANTING AND SACRED SITES LONDON

Right under our nose are places of great depth and sacredness in London. We went on a day’s pilgrimage to some of these sites including a secret prayer cave off Fleet Street, finishing at Brock House which marks the centre of the earth star according to Chris street.
