Back by popular demand, our walk around Chelsea takes in all the delights of the King's Road and what lies behind.
The road itself was the exclusive route for the monarch to Hampton Court and only quite recently opened for all. Then it was the heart of swinging London where Mary Quant ran out of clothes almost as soon as she opened, just across the road from PL Travers, what did Disney think of Feed the Birds?
There's royals too in the shape of Henry VIII, his doomed loyal subject Thomas More, the second oldest botanical garden in the country, and those Chelsea pensioners. It's a fascinating walk and it's been too long since we've done it.
Please pay £12 to my account sort code 090128 account 75471878 or cash on the day.
