Uncover the wild and wicked women of Southwark with Herstorical Tours
Southwark has long been a place of vice, rebellion, and hidden stories. While history remembers the men - Shakespeare, Henry VIII, and the Bishops of Winchester - Herstorical Tours shines a light on the women who shaped its scandalous past.
For over two millennia ‘south of the river’ has always been a wild place of debauchery and vice. From the Roman occupation, through to the Medieval and Elizabethan eras and right up to the 20th century, Southwark has rightly earned its reputation as a "Foul dene, rather than a Fairy garden" (unknown, 17th century).
Led by the irreverent and hilarious Lydia Clamydia, you’ll meet a Pagan goddess who inspired orgies, a cursed spirit who punishes men, a brothel owner, unlucky nuns, and Victorian heroines. This theatrical walking tour is a bold, feminist retelling of Southwark’s history, filled with laughter, drama, and powerful storytelling.
- Meet Forgotten Women: From Roman times to the 20th century, hear the stories history tried to silence
- Street Theatre & Comedy: Enjoy live performances and comedic storytelling throughout the tour
- Historic Locations: Explore hidden corners of Southwark and Bankside with fresh eyes
- Optional Pub Visit: End the tour with a drink in a historic Edwardian pub to reflect and unwind
