Next Event
Three Mills Canal Walk and Stratford Cityscape

Saturday 1st July 2017
13:45 – 17:00
Meeting: The Podium Bar & Kitchen, E20 2AD

Take a stroll off the East London beaten track to discover a different world by the water. There’ll be futurist skyscrapers, decaying Victoriana and listed buildings, as we explore the back rivers of Stratford and Three Mills.

This often ignored area is a real adventure, one that is rich in photogenic moments, from imposing industrial structures to unlikely juxtapositions of nature and technology.

Led by local tour guide Simon Cole of Hackney Tours and photographer Frank Da Silva this is a great opportunity to learn about East London’s colourful history and ever changing landscape.
