Meet the man behind London's historic pub crawls

After spending years organising pub crawls across London for family and friends, Thomas J. Vosper turned his hobby into three books showing off some of London's oldest pubs.

He has gained a big following on Instagram, with more than 100,000 people going to his page for tips on which hidden gems to visit.

But despite the growing popularity of his posts, he says that more of the city’s pubs are struggling to keep their doors open.
