About this Event
Walking through Hampstead, this walk concludes at Hampstead Heath Station on the Mildmay Overground Line
Did you know that the last two women to be hanged in Britain committed murders in Hampstead?
We may think of Hampstead as a safe genteel area where perhaps not that much drama happens but is this the case? Over the centuries Hampstead and Hampstead Heath have witnessed many dramatic and horrifying events. From highway men and hangings, to murders, executions, bombings and fatal accidents, this walk explores some of the stories of people involved in horrible happenings in Hampstead . We finish at Hampstead Heath Station on the newly named Mildmay overground station and near a local hostelry where you may need a digestive to stake stock of the horrors of Hampstead that you have heard about!
Please note that this is not a ghost walk - its scary in parts, but is based on actual things that happened in Hampstead.
