| About The Author | John Warland studied for a finance degree in the City of London before moving into garden design, for which he has won six RHS Gold medals at Chelsea and Hampton Court flower shows. Gardening is rather thirsty work, so with a passion for characterful watering holes John decided to make a career out of going to the pub, establishing Liquid History Tours in 2011. Now easing into his forties and based in Richmond, he spends his time exploring the streets of London and beyond for quirky history, liquid refreshment and horticultural bounty. |
