This beautiful bold city of ours is famous for its hustle and bustle. But have you discovered Quiet London?

This new trio of books by Siobhan Wall uncovers the hushed hallways, peaceful parks and tranquil tearooms of our great city, with each book offering 100 suggestions of places to go.

In the quiet corners edition you can discover gems such as Walthamstow Cemetery, which opened in 1871 and, for those willing to look, is home to a wealth of information about local history.

If you prefer to admire our abundant wildlife try a visit to King Henry’s Walk Garden, an award-winning green space on the edge of Islington, or St Dunstan in the East, the ruins of Christopher Wren’s bombed 18th Century church, which has been transformed into a pretty, sheltered garden.

Or if you would like to worship the glory of English architecture you can walk along the ethereal white corridors of Christ Church, Spitalfields.

If all that wandering around has made you peckish then the food edition has a plethora of solutions.

In Walthamstow, The East London Sausage Company offers 47 varieties from Essex country port to German bratwurst and at the Farmers’ Market in Town Hall Square you will find everything from biodynamic eggs to spicy chutneys.

Basak Pastenesi in Stoke Newington (pictured) may be the only bakery in London where you can see your durum bread being rolled out and baked, and Cheese in Muswell Hill does what it says on the sign, offering a mouth-watering array of white camembert and blue-veined Stilton.

Now to indulge your brain – this is where the culture edition comes in to play.

Start off in a small space, where big ideas were created, at Faraday’s Hut in Orchard Place, E14, where the inventor of electromagnetic conduction worked. There is also plenty of ambience at Stolen Space in Osborn Street, E1, a former funeral parlour.

The London Canal Museum (pictured) in New Wharf Road, N1, is also a transformed building, having previously been an ice warehouse. Today it is home to a 3D working model of a typical lock and other canal related items.

The book also recommends countless shops such as Tusch & Egon in Islington, where you will find giant gold rabbits for sale; craft and yarn shop Prick Your Finger in Globe Road, E2; the Handmade By You Studio in Church Street, NW8, offering the chance to learn bookbinding, candlemaking and more; Eastern antiquities emporium Sebastiano Barbagallo in Notting Hill; and Owl Bookshop in Kentish Town.

Siobhan will also be publishing a Quiet London Postcard book in March featuring 20 iconic images from her books.
