Description

After 18 years of Derelict London, this is Paul's original East London tour and a firm favourite viewing the last of the dereliction and focusing on hidden sites of interest, social history and change in the area. Sites include the remains of St Saviours Church which survived the Blitz but not a recent fire & the Limehouse Accumulator tower built in 1869 for regulating one of the first hydraulic power systems. We pass some 1970s graffiti proclaiming that "George Davis is Innocent?, derelict shops and industrial units, redundant pub & shop signs and stories of the mysterious Black Ditch which is featured in Paul's other book London's Lost Rivers. We stop off along the way for lunchtime drinks and end at a traditional boozer in time for happy hour and the option to stay on for some drag act cabaret. Grab a fry up at Frank's opposite the station for pre walk banter with Paul and the locals.

Dogs are welcome. The tour does not involve trespassing on private property.
