Dec. 6 Walworth Old & New on Open Studios Day (in the "seriously hip artists' quarter" The Times) KenningtonTube

Off the Beaten Track in London Special London Walks Unusual Walks

Dec. 6     Walworth Old & New on Open Studios Day (in the "seriously hip artists' quarter" The Times)     Kennington Tube

OLD & NEW WALWORTH

One of our Long
Live Local London walks – that's what we're serving up on today's Tour
du Jour. A walk that's spiced with some 'seriously hip' artists' studios
(as The Times put it). But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
These Local London forays are capital (so to speak) D Discoveries
because they show you Londoners' London, real London, at home London – 
as opposed to "the parlour". It's fun to see – and get inside, get  to
know – a neighbourhood that otherwise wouldn't be on your radar. It's an
undiscovered planet swimming into your ken. Here's guide Isobel's
say. "I'm on home turf here. This is the Walworth Walk. Distinct from
the Lambeth one. More fun I'd say, but I could be biased. Last year when
I led this walk @ThisisWalworth tweeted 'just when u think u know all
there is to know about #walworth #se17, along comes @GuidedbyIsobel.'"
And picking up a special Christmas prezzie or two is certainly a
possibility because we're going to put in at the the artists' Christmas
Fair – it's why the walk is timed for this weekend. Terence Conran raves
about it, and Keith Richards came here for a bespoke guitar. There's a
cafe or a pub for lunch. Unless you fancy Thai food, in which case, I'll
give you directions." N.B. the walk takes about two hours and ends in
Pullens Yards, a three minute walk from numerous buses on Walworth Road.
Or a seven minute walk to Elephant & CastleTube (and Railway Station) or KenningtonTube.
 
To go on the Old & New Walworth walk meet Isobel just outside KenningtonTube.
