Recently I was lucky enough to spend a day at the world famous Burlington Arcade Piccadilly. The Arcade is patrolled by London's oldest police force, 'The Beadles' In this episode I meet head Beadle Mark Lord learn all about the history of the Arcade and the unique role the Beadles have played in the Arcade's 200 year history.

Dont you just love London with its wide range of history, and all well explained by an iconic London cabbie.
A video of yours appeared to me for the first time tonight and I've watched a few. The one's I've watched have been very interesting, but this one is hugely interesting. I've been to London quite a few times but never been here. It's such a beautiful arcade and I would have loved to have visited it. I never knew of Beadles before so I've definitely learned something tonight. Thanks for this, Mark.
One of my favourite haunts, usually means the end of a shopping Saturday and on my way back to Paddington, fascinating though....you're a star video maker 😊
Quality Mark. Very good
Years ago, I worked at a stockbroker’s in Throgmorton Avenue, off London Wall, a private street with gates at either end that were shut around 8pm and that was patrolled by its own beadle.
23:30 Euroa, VIC is the town in Australia that he mentioned with the three VC winners - two for acts in Gallipoli in 1915 and the other from the Boer War in 1901. There's a beautiful memorial garden in Euroa that I've been to and it's so well done, as are a lot of these types of monuments all across Australia.
