BERMONDSEY.....Guided walking tour with Barrie
Another of member Barrie's unique tours of London. This time it's Docklands but south of the water. Lots to see and lots of surprises
BERMONDSEY
Warehouses, factories and Zandra Rhodes
On this walk around SE1, you'll see an abundance of converted warehouses, old factories, a block of flats that are as pristine today as they were when they were built 120 years ago and an uber-trendy market. You'll visit the place where one of fiction's greatest London villains may have met a very sticky end.
You'll also find out about two sons of Bermondsey who went into show business but had very differing career paths. Once nicknamed "The Larder Of London", Bermondsey is the latest area of the capital to transform its character and embrace change.
This is a long walk and lasts around two and a quarter hours and will be illustrated by historic photographs and great stories. It starts at Bermondsey tube station and ends close to London Bridge station.
The cost is £14 cash payable on the day but rsvp early as these tours often get sold out quickly.
You can contact Barrie for details and questions
