BACK IN THE DAY WALKS  

 

  SAT          MAY       24          KENSINGTON   60's       12 noon    

 In 1966 as a teenager you either bacame a hippy or a fashionista and the

trendy kids came to the clubs and discos of Kensington. This is where the riches to rags

story of Biba begins and ends.  On this tour I will tell you lots of annecdotes from 

those golden days of the swinging 60's and we talk about some famous names of the era.  

MON                MAY               26                     STREATHAM                                          2.00 pm  

Today Streatham is recovering from a long period in depression hopefully back to the days

when it was known as "The West End ' of the south'.  On this walk I take you back to those golden days

when I grew up in Streatham and recall how the area once had more entertainment centres than

anywhere else in London.  From the largest Bowling Alley in Europe to the most popular dance hall

outside of the the west end .  Streatham had an abundance luxury appartment blocks

and on this tour I will  bring back that era  with lots of nostalgia

            This is a brand new walk for 2025  and if you love Londons archtechure  this is very much

wonder at  the most splendid pubs in London Please note this tour is
