The Suffragette Line owes its new name to local Annie Huggett. Once home to a medieval Abbey, a large fishing fleet there's lots to explore.About this Event
This circular walk around Barking takes us past landmarks associated with its medieval abbey, its once huge fishing fleet, the noxious industries and civic pride of the 19th and 20th centuries, right up to today's riverside regeneration.
Along the way we learn where Capt. Cook was married and where a local suffragette entertained Mrs Pankhurst. We find out what links Pr*son reformer Elizabeth Fry to Barking's stunning Sikh temple and why there is a memorial to the victims of asbestosis.
