About this Event
Some areas of London seem to be veritable hot spots for ghostly encounters. This walk explores one such place – the area around the Angel Islington – to consider how the past seems to continue into the present in ways we are yet to understand.
The stories of ghosts and general weirdness will be placed into the context of the history of this slice of Islington's sites, buildings and past residents.
This is a linear walk which takes approx. 2 hours (give or take), meandering north into the quiet heart of Canonbury. It ends at one of the oldest and most charismatic buildings in London - Canonbury Tower.
Meet me near the Upper Street end of the area in front of the Business Design Centre (see map and pics below). This is located a few minutes’ walk north from Angel Underground Station, close to Islington Green.
The walk ends just over 5 minutes’ walk from Highbury & Islington Station.
I walk in (almost) all weathers, so please come prepared! The terrain is mostly flat, with a few uneven and dark surfaces, some steps and a few roads to cross. I take a max. Recommended age: 15+.
For information about my other North London ghost walks around Stoke Newington Church Street, Newington Green, Barnsbury and Bloomsbury, please visit: www.storiesofourstreets.com/walks - serious ghost walks for the seriously curious!
I look forward to walking with you!
