Southwark Travelodge to South Bank

Hi - Just looking for a word of advice.

My son is staying at the Southwark Travelodge soon and is meeting his friends at the Gourmet Pizza Company down on the Southbank, on the Saturday night.

Could anybody tell me which is the quickest and easiest route for him to walk there, from the Travelodge on Union Street. - Many thanks in advance - Barbara.

This would be the most direct route according to Google, though the walk via Hatfields is more straightforward and with a little more scenery to tickle the eye.

Hi Barbara

Here is a simple map from the Travelodge to the Pizza place - it's about a 10 min stroll.

Only thing worth mentioning is that when he gets to "B", he will need to walk through "Gabriel's Wharf" towards the river to get to the pizza place.

That's a darn sight more elegant way of listing a map. How do you create 'simple map'?

Hi mate - you just beat me!

I created a jpg image of the Google map and uploaded to my website.

Many, many thanks for that. - I'm up here in the north-west of England and although I knew that it wasn't too far to the Gourmet Pizza Company, I wasn't familiar with the roads and streets. Cheers again, Barbara.
