This week in COUNTRY LIFE we are in London exploring the treasures of our great capital.
In architecture, Lord Cormack invites us into the opulent Parliament Chamber of the House of Lords, and also we burrow underground to follow the routes of some of the capital's fascinating secret rivers.
Clive Aslet visits the hallowed halls of the London Library, and Simon Hopkinson shows us how to make a proper tarte tatin.
Plus we locate the most genteel village in which to live in London - where is it?
