Transform your walks and make each journey an experience with Cobble. Open Cobble and start walking: unlock compelling audio scenes based on what you’re interested in as you walk past the sites of hidden stories. Hear about the architecture above you, the literary giants who once strolled these streets, or the hidden histories etched into the pavement beneath your feet.
Cobble responds to your location to immerse you in the amazing hidden stories and characters of London’s past and present. You might stand outside an ordinary-looking house and discover its haunting ghosts, hearing former residents’ share their paranormal encounters; look up at a vast cathedral and hear about the technologies that built it one thousand years ago; spot an unusual pattern in the pavement and hear the moment a heretic was burned at the stake right here in an era of treason and terror.
