'Fashion, Food, Antiques & an Abbey – Historic Bermondsey' Guided Walk
Come along on Sunday 21st June for a Blue Badge Guided Walk around historic Bermondsey! Blue Badge Guides know London better than anyone. They have trained intensively for two years and passed the highest Tourist Guiding qualification in the UK. About the walk Bermondsey may be understood to mean 'Beornmund's' island. Once dominated by industry, this area is now on the up with fashionable restaurants, riverside apartments and museums devoted to fashion/design. We will hear about Bermondsey’s renaissance on this tour which takes in the site of an ancient abbey, one of London’s most atmospheric streets and the old Leathermarket. We finish in a riverside area renowned for its cuisine. The walk is a private walk for the group, we will be guided by Blue Badge guide Diane Burstein and Moira Dearnley.
