A Jermyn Inspiration - the making of St. James

From park to palace, to squares and clubs, we move from royalty, to traders, and gamblers to discover the lives and characters who worked and lived here, their successes and disappointments.

Moving round the fashionable part of Georgian London we will discover how St. James was transformed by the vision of one man and became home to many other men and women of extraordinary talents and also its other residents who recklessly abandoned their lives to the throw of a dice or the fall of an auctioneers hammer.

We’ll see a tiny grave, pause to hear stories of small and poignant memorials and the specular and hear the fates of those connected to them.
