Edwin Lerner

Named Edwin (an early king of Northern England) but usually called 'Eddie', I conducted extended tours around Britain and Ireland for many years and now work as a freelance guide and tour manager with a little writing and editing on the side.  I specialise in public transport and walking tours of London which means that you do not have to have your own vehicle. I conduct round Britain tours themed on cars, religion, music, theatre, literature and sport and have looked after all types of groups from freemasons to farmers, from baptists to Beatles fans. I will go anywhere and work extra hard for all my clients.

    London's Tallest Buildings: A Journey Through the City's Iconic Skyline

    London was built on clay so it was harder to build high than in New York, which stands on rock. For many years the tallest architects could construct a skyscraper was 5 - 600 feet. Then new technology allowed them to build higher and London’s tallest building is currently The Shard next to London Bridge, which is over 1000 feet tall. One Undershaft in The City was built to match The Shard in height and it too will have a viewing tower with an education centre operated by the recently renamed London Museum (formerly Museum of London).

    British Luxury Cars: Rolls Royce, Bentley, Jaguar and Aston Martin

    Building a Future, Facing a Past: The British Museum's Expansion Plans

    The British Museum is one of the world’s great museums but has a very inappropriate name. Many of the treasures on display were acquired – sometimes by fair means, sometimes by foul – over the centuries when Britain was a great imperial power and most people thought little of the morality of taking treasures from countries that had been colonised as part of the British empire and displaying them in central London in a building designed by Sir Robert Smirke and his brother Sidney. Many of these countries now want their treasures back and are growing increasingly strident in demands for their return.
