Walk includes an insight into the religious, medical and sporting pursuits of life by both royalty and the not so wealthy. Graveyards too!

On this walk we get an insight into the religious, medical and sporting pursuits of life by both royalty and the not so wealthy. We see where some very historic iconic people lived and are buried. We pass the flats where some notorious criminals spent their last night of freedom. We see just how the area is gradually being regenerated but as always there are some very quirky clues about times gone by. We also have an opportunity to visit the first Methodist Chapel, the grave of John Wesley and see some of the graves in Bunhill Fields

Note: on this walk we have the opportunity to take a brief rest break and look around John Wesleys Chapel and watch a short video during our rest break. This is the home of Methodism and see some of the best toilets in London!
