Londoners love a myth but also the truth behind. Fab visit to #SocietyOfAntiquaries London, yesterday. Met other Volunteers with whom I helped research it. See Forest Charter, arguably most important part of #MagnaCarta1225, as it gave freedoms to the Poor #LetsGuide #UniquelyLondon #ALondonersLife3
