Saturday,
February 24th
INK SPOTS
Join a walk around Fleet Street with LONDON FOOTSTEPS
This part of London will always be remembered for printing, newspapers and great writers. Now the industry has moved on to their gleaming temples of technology in Docklands but there are still plenty of memories around the Fleet Street ink spots.
This walk traces the history of the magazines and newspapers and some of the writers and journalists who have filled the pages of print from the 17th to the 20th centuries.
The visit to the journalists’ church – St Bride’s – is the highlight of the walk.
Meet at Leigh-on-Sea Station at 9.30 am or in the booking hall of Blackfriars Underground Station at 11 am.
Give me a call if you would like to come along on
Saturday, 24th February.
