London Geography London Geography Despite being building-dense, there is a great abundance of open spaces and parks within London. They are located throughout the city so why not explore! Hyde Park is one of the most famous of the Royal Parks, situated near Mayfair and Knightsbridge. This park boasts the Serpentine lake, on which boats are available for hire. Hyde Park also plays host to a range of events including the festivals British Summer Time and Wireless. Kensington Gardens are adjacent to Kensington Palace, official home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The State rooms of the palace are open to the public, as are the Italian Gardens. Hampstead Heath is a popular park in North West London featuring 3 swimming pools and a Lido, which are perfect during the summertime. The Heath also offers organised sporting opportunities including angling, athletics, cricket and tennis. Jump on the Northern Line Camden Town is a historic beacon of artistic expression, individuality and culture. Host to a Camden Market including the infamous Cyberdog, browse a wide range of eclectic clothing including goth and punk rock essentials. Camden is also well-known for its music scene: it is called home by Madness and Amy Winehouse and has numerous venues including the Roundhouse, the Electric Ballroom, the Blues Kitchen and Barfly. Tour of Emirates Stadium – home to Arsenal FC, Emirates Stadium is the UK’S newest Grade II listed stadium. The 60,000-seater area is open to tours throughout the week from £20 a ticket and also has a museum to commemorate the historic London team, including medals, shirts and trophies. Primrose Hill boasts a panoramic view of the London skyline. Surrounded by cafes, it is a beautiful spot to spend a sunny Sunday to have a picnic, play ball games or play ‘spot the landmark’ as you take in the awe-inspiring landscape. Highgate Cemetery may sound like an unusual location to visit, however the ivy-cloaked Victorian tombs and statues make this graveyard an interesting place. The East Cemetery is free, however it is the West Cemetery, which is the most atmospheric. It is only accessible by organised tours which are booked ahead, and is the final resting place of notable people such as Karl Marx. Golders Green is a religious hub and is home to a large Jewish community. There are several synagogues in the area as well as traditional bakeries, which offer cheap, homemade goods including bagels – a delicious alternative to supermarkets. East Jump on the Central Line Stratford has risen in popularity since the 2012 Olympic Games with many on the facilities now open to the public. The Aquatics Centre is available for public swimming and diving sessions from £3.50 for adults, while the VeloPark offers sessions for novices and experienced bikers alike. Stroll through the parkland of the Olympic Park, which includes the ArcelorMittal Orbit. Stratford is also home to Westfield Shopping Centre, the largest urban shopping and leisure destination in Europe. Shoreditch Considered the ‘hipster’ area of London, Shoreditch has maintained its original gritty, urban edge. Beginning with Spitalfields market, an eclectic range of retailers and restaurateurs are on offer for the everyday and the unique. Brick Lane is a historic favourite where there is the highest concentration of Indian restaurants, allowing for cheap but still award-winning curries. Bethnal Green features Columbia Road flower market, the largest fresh flower street market in London, which makes for a beautiful Sunday stroll. Around the corner you can find the V&A museum of childhood, away from the crowd-packed museums in Kensington and it’s free! Whitechapel Once home to Jack the Ripper, Whitechapel is now a multicultural and diverse area. Browse around Whitechapel Gallery’s contemporary exhibitions, followed by a trip to Exmouth coffee shop. Genesis cinema is a quirky alternative to your typical cinema. With a bar and sofas in their studios, tickets are £7 for students and £4.50 every Monday and Wednesday! Have a butcher’s at trendy East London Cockney rhyming slang – Butcher’s Hook = Take a Look! Don’t worry, we don’t get it either... South Jump on the Overground Greenwich is a historically rich area of London, which celebrates the English nautical era. It is the docking place of the Cutty Sark, one of the last tea clippers, which has undergone restoration since catching fire in 2007 and 2014. You can also stroll through the old navy college, pictured above. Overlooking the museums sits the Royal Observatory, where you can go stargazing with the country’s largest refracting telescope. The Astronomy Centre, which is free, hosts a 4.5-billion-year-old meteorite and the Planetarium screening daily shows. North Greenwich is where you can find the O2 centre, a hub of shopping, restaurants and live music and sporting events. For something different and daring, harness up and climb over the venue’s roof for one of the most spectacular city views. Alternatively, the Emirates Air Line can also provide a unique perspective of the city, for which you can use your Oyster card. Crystal Palace Boating Lake The largest park in Bromley, Crystal Palace Park is diverse with a mix of woodland and open grassland. It boasts a free maze, but its boating lake is the key attraction. Hire pedalos for unique views of the park and its residents - sculptures of dinosaurs! Wimbledon A beacon of British summertime is Wimbledon season. Tickets are allocated by ballot, but matches are broadcast on big screens outside for free viewing. So take a seat on Henman Hill and enjoy. Kew Gardens is a beautiful World Heritage Site which covers over 300 acres with over 30,000 species of plants. An impressive attraction is the treetop walkway: 18m up in the air, explore the biodiversity of the top of the canopy. Beefeater Distillery offers a tour through the home and history of the award-winning Beefeater London Gin. Finishing with a complimentary gin and tonic, this opportunity will provide insight into the hand-crafted production process. West Jump on the District Line London’s Museum Quarter Down in South Kensington, the cluster of London’s best free museums are located. Beginning with the V&A Museum, a decorative arts and design museum, enjoy exhibitions on fashion and jewellery, as well as furniture, photography, textiles and architecture. The high-ceilinged, light-filled galleries are also home to a broad collection of European monuments and sculpture. Next, the Science Museum, where you can learn about science and technology through the ages. There is also an IMAX cinema with special science- related 3D films, along with demonstrations and hands-on exhibits. Finally, the Natural History Museum, highlights of which include a Blue Whale and the Dinosaur collection, featuring the first T. rex fossil ever found! Chelsea An affluent, fashionable area of West London, Chelsea is a hub for high end shopping, culture and foliage. Sloane Square marks the beginning of the famous King’s Road, which offers luxury brands and flagship stores such as Tiffany & Co., and Hermes. For a bite to eat, try brunch hot spots Bluebird café, Tom’s Kitchen or Eelbrook. Alternatively, for some contemporary art, visit the Saachi Gallery for free. Continue your exploration across the river: stroll along the Chelsea Embankment to Albert Bridge, into Battersea Park. Portobello Road Market is actually formed from several markets, stretched out up one long road in Notting Hill. Stalls sell vegetables, flowers and new goods through the week. Meanwhile at the weekend, this is the place to be to hunt for antiques. Also on offer are vintage clothes stores and fashion boutiques by up-and- coming designers. West End Shows The West End offers a fantastic range of classic and new theatre shows including ‘The Phantom of the Opera’, ‘Les Misérables’ and ‘Matilda the Musical’. For last-minute tickets, check out the Leicester Square ticket booth where you can usually get a bargain! .

  • Walks Programme: July to September 2021
    LONDON STROLLERS WALKS PROGRAMME: JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2021 NOTES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING COVID-19: Following discussions with Ramblers’ Central Office, it has been confirmed that as organized ‘outdoor physical activity events’, Ramblers’ group walks are exempt from other restrictions on social gatherings. This means that group walks in London can continue to go ahead. Each walk is required to meet certain requirements, including maintenance of a register for Test and Trace purposes, and completion of risk assessments. There is no longer a formal upper limit on numbers for walks; however, since Walk Leaders are still expected to enforce social distancing, and given the difficulties of doing this with large numbers, we are continuing to use a compulsory booking system to limit numbers for the time being. Ramblers’ Central Office has published guidance for those wishing to join group walks. Please be sure to read this carefully before going on a walk. It is available on the main Ramblers’ website at www.ramblers.org.uk. The advice may be summarised as: - face masks must be carried and used, for travel to and from a walk on public transport, and in case of an unexpected incident; - appropriate social distancing must be maintained at all times, especially at stiles or gates; - you should consider bringing your own supply of hand sanitiser, and - don’t share food, drink or equipment with others. Some other important points are as follows: 1. BOOKING YOUR PLACE ON A WALK If you would like to join one of the walks listed below, please book a place by following the instructions given below.

  • Bromley May 2018
    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Bromley May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.

  • Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt
    Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt What better way to celebrate The Senior Section Spectacular than by exploring one of the greatest cities in the world! London is full of interesting places, monuments and fascinating museums, many of which are undiscovered by visitors to our capital city. This scavenger hunt is all about exploring a side to London you might never have seen before… (all these places are free to visit!) There are 100 Quests - how many can you complete and how many points can you earn? You will need to plan your own route – it will not be possible to complete all the challenges set in one day, but the idea is to choose parts of London you want to explore and complete as many quests as possible. Read through the whole resource before starting out, as there are many quests to choose from and bonus points to earn… Have a great day! The Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt resource was put together by a team of Senior Section leaders in Hampshire North to celebrate The Senior Section Spectacular in 2016. As a county, we used this resource as part of a centenary event with teams of Senior Section from across the county all taking part on the same day. We hope this resource might inspire other similar events or maybe just as a way to explore London on a unit day trip…its up to you! If you would like a badge to mark taking part in this challenge, you can order a Hampshire North County badge designed by members of The Senior Section to celebrate the centenary (see photo below).
