Steps of the Ripper - Saturday Afternoon Halloween Weekend Walk & Drinks
Details
Walk length 3miles/5km approx. Circular.
A walk exploring the history of Spitalfields and Whitechapel and the story behind a very gruesome Victorian serial killer....
Although the Spitalfields and Whitechapel areas of London have changed dramatically since Victorian times, there is still an atmosphere to this fascinating part of the London East End. The walk passes old narrow alleys, thriving markets and old soup kitchens to Hawksmoors impressive Christ Church Spitalfields.
We will stop for refreshments at the end of the walk close to Liverpool Street.
Cost: £4 payable on the day (guided walk & meetup costs, the host is a qualified London guide).

Walking Safety
Walking is a great way to keep fit and generally very safe; however it does contain an element of risk. Before going on any of these walks you need to be reasonably fit and be prepared to be responsible for your own safety. You should wear appropriate clothing such as proper walking shoes, warm and wet weather clothing and carry sufficient food and water.
