Old Southwark in the Blitz
Join Neil Bright for a guided walk looking at how this historic borough and its citizens coped during several phases of the Blitz.
Southwark is steeped in evidence of the Blitz - look at such evidence as bomb blasts at Guy's Hospital and Blackfriars Road.
Hear of the horrors of Wardens' Post 6 and the Surrey Theatre and see a rare relic of the Blitz - an Emergency Water Supply sign; plus much more.
The walk is supported with photos from the Blitz and personal stories.
Walk lasts approximately 2 and three-quarter hours and ends at Imperial War Museum.

- 11am (meet by wooden cross in south churchyard)
