A history of Charing Cross in maps
The story of Charing Cross and Trafalgar Square illustrated in a series of historical maps between the 1500s and modern day. We visit the Royal Mews - more birds of prey than horses; see two Eleanor Crosses; drop by an ancient priory and watch as a new public space is built.
