45+ Not grumpy old Londoners!

Come with me on an enjoyable and picturesque walk from Enfield Lock Station to Chingford Plain. {walking distance 4.5 miles}.

We will meet at 11 am at Enfield Lock Station and at 11.10 am start our walk.

Our walk will take us along Turkey Brook, Enfield Lock, crossing over a few bridges until we reach Seward Marsh Nature Reserve {as image above}

Once through the Reserve we will stop for a hot drink at The Netherhouse Cafe.

After our hot drink, we will begin our accent into the Sewardstone Hills, crossing over a field, climbing up a cinder track, walking up a hill till we reach Gilwell Park {The Scouts Association National Headquarters}.

We will have lunch at Gilwell Park, sitting on the grass there {please bring something to sit on}.

After lunch we will make our way to Chingford Plain navigating some woodland paths.

At Chingford Plain we will make our way to a bar called The Front Room opposite Chingford Station with trains going to Liverpool Street Station.

£5 meet up fee payable on arrival.

If you have a knee problem or walk slow, this walk is definitely not for you.

This walk can be quite tricky in parts and it is advisable that you wear the right footwear and bring walking poles if you have them as some of the woodland hills are quite steep, when walking down and up them.

COV'D 19 regulations will apply so please bring along a mask, and hand sanitiser with you.

Please advise me at least 24 hrs before, so some one else can take your place.

Failure to do so may result in when you sign up for another of my walks, that you will be moved to not going.

If you need any more info, ring or text Paul on[masked] {this is not a smart phone}

As this walk is reliant on dry weather, if it has been raining, this walk will be cancelled and changed to another date.

If that happens another meet up will take its place.

A FUN WALKING TOUR THROUGH ONE OF LONDON'S HIPPEST DISTRICTS

Meet[masked] @ Costa Coffee 13 New Bridge Street EC4 - across the road from Blackfriars Underground Station

Sometimes referred to as Shakespeare's playground with its pubs, bear-baiting ring and theatres, this area is used to be London's red-light district in the Medieval and Tudor periods, alongside which the watermen (the taxi drivers of those days) plied their trade - not always honestly! Much cleaned up today, it's still an exciting area of entertainment, foodie delights and great pubs.
As for red lights.....well...... i wouldn't know about that!

We finish near Borough Market with tons of foodie stalls and there's also an authentic Elizabethan tavern for those who want a pub lunch.

Guided walk £10 payable on the day

A brand new tour from our great guide Barrie

TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD
===========================
Furniture, Electric goods and so much more

Tottenham court Road is one of those roads of London that one just drives down, a road that links other parts of the City from Euston to
Oxford street. However like every corner of London there is so much to see, so much to learn that is not immediately apparent without knowing where to look.

Of course furniture is Tottenham court road’s greatest legacy and the history of its two famous stores will not be ignored, nor will its more recent reputation for being the place to go for Hi Fi and everything else for radio and video enthusiasts.

But if you think thats all you are very mistaken, we cover
a variety of subjects like lap dancing, hidden art deco buildings.
tropical diseases and cult religions. I was amazed how often Tottenham court road featured in my personal life so I’ll throw
some of that in for good measure.

This walk goes the whole way down and ends by Primark at the corner of Oxford street so bring extra money if you want to end the
tour in the usual queue outside the shop and the usual queue to pay!!

Taking the usual 2 hours or so the tour costs £10 cash on the day
Contact me for info on[masked] by text or phone
