The Borough Walk with Old Maps


This event is in the past. This is an archive page for reference.

Join Ken Titmuss for a walk with old maps across this ancient neighburhood that celebrates the young Charles Dickens, who lodged in the area when his father was in Marshalsea debtors' prison. You will locate the prison wall and trace where he lodged.

Criss-crossed with grand railway arches you will find signs of an industrial past, a secret garden and Octavia Hill cottages.

See how the workhouse building was re-used more than once.
