A Riverside Walk Through London’s Living History: Woolwich to Greenwich

Join us on a gentle 4 mile-ish stroll, from Woolwich Arsenal to the Greenwich Foot Tunnel:

From cannons and clippers to tunnels beneath the Thames, this walking tour invites you to peel back the layers of London’s eastern riverside. Beginning at Woolwich Arsenal—once the beating heart of Britain’s military might—and ending at the iconic Greenwich Foot Tunnel, this journey meanders along the Thames Path through centuries of industrial innovation, maritime heritage, and architectural curiosity.

With, almost uninterrupted, panoramic viewpoints along the way, it’s the perfect mix of history, scenery, and discovery. Lace up your walking shoes and let the past guide your steps.

... and then, perhaps, a cooling draught and/or a nibble, at one of wonderfully charming historic pubs, with with Greenwich is so amply served, if you so choose.

N.B. as ever, numbers will be strictly limited to allow everyone the opportunity to chat, make friends and ask questions.

Woolwich Arsenal is easily accessible on The Elizabeth Line, Southeastern Trains and numerous bus routes.
