Columbia Road Flower Market via Brick Lane, 4 miles


Details
- We will meet outside the Hamilton Hall Pub, Liverpool Street Station, Bishopsgate Exit.
- We will then make our way via Spitalfields and Brick Lane, where we will explore the history and diversity of East London with truly amazing street art photo-ops, a part of the London Mural festival. The road is also a home to numerous independent Victorian shops.
- We will then proceed to Columbia Road Market, which is London's principal flower market devoted to selling plants, flowers, garden fittings and gardening equipment. We will reassemble at the end of the market.
- We will then return via same route to Hamilton Hall Pub (Wetherspoons) for an optional drinks/lunch at the end of walk. If people prefer street food from the Brick Lane market, or indeed from the famous bagel shops, they can always join us for a drink at the pub later.
