A trail of clues awaits in

St Paul's

Join us on an exciting self-guided treasure hunt through the City of London as we explore the area around the iconic St Paul's Cathedral. Your journey will take you on an adventure filled with lost Victorian memorials, ancient Roman ruins, and intriguing objects and inscriptions scattered throughout Paternoster Square and St Paul's Churchyard.

But don't forget about your vital quest…

Last week, amateur archaeologist Doug Upperbone accidentally demolished a Roman urn he had discovered while mudlarking on the Thames beaches. However, inside he found a sealed package containing a curious map of a tiny island off the coast of Essex. How strange! How did it get there? Doug has asked us to task a top treasure seeker with following the clues and cracking the potty puzzle. Do YOU have what it takes to unravel the mystery?
