Greenwich Riverside

Please mail me if you'd like to receive an occasional newsletter on upcoming walks.
This walk into London's maritime history starts in dramatic fashion! We will dive deep under the Thames via a Victorian foot tunnel to emerge in glorious Royal Greenwich, once home to a Tudor Palace beloved by both Henry VIII and Elizabeth. We will see the country's last surviving tea clipper - the elegant Cutty Sark, on our way to the impressive twin-domed Naval College, designed by Wren, and enjoy the riverside views from its grounds. Walking east through charming Georgian lanes we will hear about Nelson's last journey home here in a barrel of brandy before enjoying ending up at The Cutty Sark, one of London's most historic and charming pubs (not compulsory!).
