D&D General D&D adventure set in London

[GwaihirAgain]

HI all,

I seem to recall, dimly, a DND adventure set in "real world" possibly Victorian London. It might be AD&D. Does any recall this and know where I can find it?

Thanks!
G

Dragon Magazine #100 had a module insert with the PCs transporting to '80's era London in search of an artifact.

"City Beyond the Gate" was the name of the adventure.

My advice is.... the PCs shouldn't be in London before 1858 because the stink may be really unberable.

Trigger warning for actual Britons: It's apparently written based off a very odd novel about Britain and not actually, you know, having visited London personally or anything.

Fair point to warn, though I'm an actual Londoner and I was fine with it as a D&D adventure.
I do remember the city of Pitts Burke (or similar spelling) in the old Gamma Word setting as quite amusing, especially as my wife is a Steelers fan.

I’ve written plenty of stuff set in US cities I’ve never been to.

A small linguistic point, British is plural and Briton is singular. At least that what Collin's tells me
