Walk starts outside the Docklands Museum and finishes at Wapping Station- though you may care to linger for a drink at the Captain Kidd.

I try to make my walks as inclusive and accessible as possible but sometimes architecture and geography are against us. This walk does involve rough ground and also some stairs and steps with no lift available.

FOOTWARE - this walk does go on uneven grassy areas and unmade paths which can be bit muddy after rain, please be shod accordingly.

The Walk is led by an experienced and qualified Guide - more details at
