Barrie's Walks - Bermondsey

Guided Walking Tour: Bermondsey

Warehouses, factories and Zandra Rhodes

On this walk around SE1, you'll see an abundance of converted warehouses, old factories, a block of flats that are as pristine today as they were when they were built 120 years ago followed by an uber-trendy market. You'll visit the place where one of fiction's greatest London villains may have met a very sticky end. You'll also find out about two sons of Bermondsey who went into show business but had very differing career paths. Once nicknamed "The Larder Of London", Bermondsey is the latest area of the capital to transform its character and embrace change. This is a long walk  and extremely interesting walk and lasts around two and a quarter hours and will be illustrated by historic photographs and great stories. It starts at Bermondsey tube station and ends close to London Bridge station.
