This walks and visits programme for 2024 will once again range across London, with visits to a variety of different areas, including central London but also ranging from Barnes in West London to the ancient woodlands at Oxleas in the east. On the way you can hear stories about Mediaeval Kings, the Gentleman Highwayman, flying children and see some magnificent portraits.

 

Also look at the ‘Talks’ tab to see the line-up for Zoom talks. This is a regular series once a month on a Tuesday evening. The programme this year will include the fame of the English embroiderers and breaking the code used by Samuel Pepys. Other talks have themes that include colour, filming, medicine and horses. Discover Florence Nightingale’s skill with statistics, where to study the stars at night and the aerial ballet at Battersea.

 

Whether taking walks or listening to talks, it is the remarkable lives of people who once lived in London that create the most profound interest. Walks and Talks are a great way to get to know London better and we hope to seeing you come along or link in.
