Advertisement It s hard to believe that there could be any secrets left to discover in London. After all, it s teeming with 10million people and is one of the most visited cities in the world. But this mesmerising metropolis hides plenty of unexpected treasures, as new book Abandoned London (www.amberbooks.co.uk) reveals. Written by Katie Wignall - a London Blue Badge tourist guide and founder of the Look Up London history blog and walking tour company - the tome features images and detailed historical descriptions of more than 200 sites left to ruin. In it you can read about the subterranean Finsbury Park underground reservoir, a space capable of holding five million gallons of water and today used as an occasional movie location; the remnants of Highgate s overground steam railway station, now a protected bat habitat, and the Haggerston public baths, part of an early 20th century building programme devised to improve London s hygiene.
