Meet at 11.30 am
Outside (not inside) the Whitechapel Ideas Store (aka Whitechapel Library) 321 Whitechapel Road E1 1BU.
(Next to the Blind Beggar Pub).
Nearest Underground Station – Whitechapel – 5 minutes walk away.
The walk will take approximately two hours but will only be about ½ mile long!
We will end up back at the Blind Beggar for (if desired) a spot of lunch and liquid refreshment!
A vast array of history, a kaleidoscope of antiquity will be uncovered…
In chronological order:
The Peasant’s Revolt
Captain Cook
The Salvation Army
Jack the Ripper
The Siege of Sidney Street
The Krays
Along with much much more.
All for a small £5 donation to the Stairway to Heaven Memorial Trust – the charity dedicated to providing a lasting memorial to the victims of the Bethnal Green Tube Disaster
