Here are some more reviews of this walk:

Jean & Dave H (August 2019) “We thoroughly enjoyed your vast knowledge of the area and your fantastic way of making us feel as if we had know you a long time. Hope to join you again on one of your walks.”

Debbie C (March 2019): "This was a fantastic walk with lots of interesting facts. We don't live far from Walthamstow but certainly learnt more about the area than we would have thought. Looking forward to Joanna's walk in Chingford."

Cathy B (Art Night) (February 2019) "We arranged a private tour with Joanna around Walthamstow to learn more about the area where we're currently working and will arrange an art festival this Summer. We learned loads of really interesting and unexpected facts and details within the 2 hour walk. Joanna also recommended pubs and good reads about Walthamstow, as well as sending us links to further information - a truly great walking tour!"

Directions from Walthamstow Central

On arriving at the top of the escalator from the tube turn immediately left - signposted for buses and Selborne Road. You will go down a short flight of stairs and then after going through the ticket barriers go up a bigger steep flight of stairs. At the top of the stairs walk straight on, through the bus station. At the end you will see a small alleyway called Rosebank Villas with a multicoloured floor. There is a betting shop and ahead you will see the side of the Empire Cinema. As you emerge out of the alleyway turn right. Then take the first left which is Hoe Street. Carry on along Hoe Street and after about 7 minutes turn left into Gaywood Road - this cuts off the corner and at the end of Gaywood Road you will be opposite the Gallery. Please do take care when walking along Hoe Street as there are a number of "Copenhagen" style crossings where there is no obvious division between the pavement and the road.

The industrial estate at the end of the walk is about 13 minutes’ walk back to Walthamstow Central tube.

You may want to arrive early to have a look around the William Morris Gallery before the walk. It's free to enter plus there's a cafe there too https://www.wmgallery.org.uk/home

All walks can be offered as private tours and both as virtual and real life tours. Please get in touch via the contact button for more information.
