The Great Fire of London - Can YOU Find the Stolen Treasures?
As flames engulfed the city of London in 1666, the word went out: "Save the treasures from the churches! Take them to safety before they melt in the blaze!" Most of the precious items were eventually returned, but not all. Rumour has it that a cunning merchant, Nick Stuffe, took advantage of the chaos and stole some priceless church ornaments. These items were then shipped to a secret island hiding place. The Museum of London needs YOUR help to follow the Trail and uncover the location of Nick's hidden stash.

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Pudding Lane to Pye Corner, there are a few things you need to know...
The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.
This Trail takes you through a very busy city centre, so we would not recommend bringing your four-legged friends along.
This Trail starts close to Monument Underground Station on the Circle and District lines, and ends close to Farringdon Station, which is on the main line as well as the Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan and Elizabeth Underground lines.
Access may be restricted to some parts of the Trail on some days due to special events or marches in central London. It's always best to check for known road closures and restrictions ahead of travel.
There are public toilets available at several spots along the route, and you’ll pass plenty of snack shops, cafes, pubs, restaurants and green spaces as you go.
