The Charterhouse, founded in the 14th century as a monastery, is one of London's hidden gems. It later served as a school, amongst its alumni was John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. Since the school moved out of London it has housed retired men and more recently women.
We will be given a tour of its historic buildings by one of the Brothers (residents). There is also a recently opened museum which can be viewed free of charge before or after the tour.
