Uncover the lost rivers of South London with this fascinating guided tour mapping the path of the Grand Surrey Canal. Beginning at the old Peckham Basin and concluding in Rotherhithe, take an illuminating journey through some of South East London’s most beautiful and intriguing sights. Although closed just after WW2, the Grand Surrey Canal is still traceable today and holds many reminders of London’s rich industrial and literary past. Take in obsolete canal bridges, timber wharfs, mooring bollards & lock machinery, and discover hidden treasures south of the river. Have you heard of Chaucer’s mural on the Old Kent Road? Join Paul Talling on this walk and discover more of London.
