Slightly off topic, but where actually is “London Town”? It’s not on any maps and as a northerner who doesn’t venture to the capital often, I always wonder where it is??? |

There’s a “Camden Town” & “Canning Town”, but “London Town” is local speak, usually in admiration “Love old London Town” |

Not entirely, Londininium was what is now the City of London, the old Roman Walls mark the boundary for that. |

If we're going to get into the 'Town' stuff then I'll refer to going up to town if I'm heading into central London or going Up West.
