"I walk everywhere"

Crowther, M. “My Clerkenwell Life: Sian Phillips”. The Clerkenwell Post January/February 2012: 26.

"How did you get to know the area?

I walk everywhere. My favourite walk in the whole of London is from the Angel to Smithfield, and then down to the river. I know all the wonderful hidden streets. I’m also very good at extracting – if I look at a street, I can take out the 19^th and 20^th century and see what a building was like before. I just look at things all the time. I know Clerkenwell keeps getting smarter but it still has so many original features. It’s very romantic."
