Did you know that...
From the mid 1800th century, there had been a myth about of a bloodthirsty killer in London. The barber-serial killer Sweeney Todd is traditionally believed to have lived and worked in Fleet Street. He became a prototype for numerous adaptations of this story, including the films of George King, Stephen Sondheim, Tim Burton, and more.
Fleet Street St Pauls EC4 is not just one of the most important streets in London but also a historical route whose origins trace back to the Roman Empire. In the Middle Ages, the street became a starting place for various industries and businesses especially printing. The British national press is commonly associated with Fleet Street. Important British publications such as The Daily Telegraph had offices on Fleet Street St Pauls EC4. Several pubs that were a regular meeting place for journalists are some of the street’s attractions.
