We are the London Strollers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Meet outside Streatham station for a linear walk of about four miles to Balham. On this walk we will see amongst other things a mulberry tree believed to date back to the time of Thrale Hall, a building Samuel Johnson was known to visit: The Priory, a crenellated building associated with a Victorian whodunnit and a house designed by Charles Voysey for a wallpaper magnate. It is hoped to stop for a coffee break at a pleasant self-service church community cafe. Should finish by about 14.00.
!!! No booking required, just turn up.
