This Virtual Pub Crawl Is A Journey Through London's Queer History

You've probably heard of the Prospect of Whitby. It claims to be London's oldest riverside tavern — having served the likes of Samuel Pepys, Charles Dickens and JMW Turner — and today remains popular with tourists and Londoners alike.
But did you know that in the 19th century it was a haven for queer Londoners? A place where "dock labourers, sailors from across the world and families mingled freely with flamboyant local queens... where queer men and casual homosexual encounters were an accepted part of everyday life"?
This is just one of the hidden LGBTQ+ histories that you can explore on a new virtual pub crawl by The Brunel Museum, which launches at the end of the month.
