Last year, the British government announced that it would
drop the entrance fee to many of the larger museums in London.

The Beetle’s favourite London museum is funnily enough
called the Museum of London. It is about 15 minutes walk from St Paul’s
Cathedral and the closest tube is the Barbican.

You could combine a visit starting at the Barbican, visit
an art exhibition, grab a bite to eat or a coffee or wander around the
Barbican complex, which is interesting in itself. Then walk down Aldersgate
(about 5 minutes) towards St Paul’s to the large roundabout road where
the Museum of London is situated.

It’s a great museum which looks at the early Roman remains
in London, all through the ages to the modern skyline of the City. And
it’s free!

Weekends are the busiest time since the admission fee
has been scrapped, so try and visit during the week, if you can. Take
