“The two hours of the walk passed remarkably quickly, sped by Tom Bolton’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the borough.” SAVE Britain’s Heritage newsletter, Jan 2018

Online walks

The Royal Geographical Society’s ‘Discovering Britain’ site has two of my walks in online versions:

Lost East End ties together the lost neighbourhoods of Wellclose, Ratcliff and Limehouse Chinatown in an East End epic. It’s a glimpse of the Vanished City.

St.Pancras Trail goes behind the sheen of redeveloped King’s Cross to located Old St. Pancras and some of the least visited places in central London.

Discovering Britain also includes my account of the view from Horsleydown Stairs, under Tower Bridge.
