Transfer from the City of London (EC1) to Luton Airport
As I mentioned in the beginning of today’s guide, the City of London district is one with the most preserved historical monuments and buildings and was an important historical area for London and England. Following this traces of ancient times we arrive to Farringdon, a region represented by the Wards of Farringdon Within and Farringdon Without.
The story of the Within and Without comes from 1394, when two areas were divided from the original Farringdon. “Within” and “Without” mention whether the Ward fell outside or within the London Wall. Both Farringdon occupy a large space in the Islington district. It is thought that the name of Farringdon comes from Nicholas Farringdon which purchased the the area in 1279 and became its Alderman in 1281.

In present days the charity is active in St. Luke’s area fulfilling the initial benefactorial purposes of helping locals succeed in their lives.
