About this Event
Weaving a route from Highgate to the Thames, The River Fleet is one of London’s most celebrated yet notorious water courses. Buried in a network of sewers today, The Fleet has been both life-source and life-taker, carving out a landscape of urban hills, ditches, slums and warehouses that became an epicentre for commercial speculators, railway pioneers and revolutionary political agitators. From hidden viaducts and railway monuments to model dwellings, grecian villas and modernism, this walk treads the quaggy banks and slopes of the middle Fleet Valley to chart the architecture and landscape of London’s most radical of arteries.
