The hotel has teamed up with British Military Fitness (BMF) to give visitors access to complimentary fitness sessions to help them keep fit in the great outdoors. The hotel, which has a keen emphasis on reducing its impact on the environment and was awarded “Considerate Hotel of the Year 2007”, is offering its guests an alternative workout to the normal hotel gym. Residents of the hotel are invited to attend these rigorous BMF sessions with the hotel’s compliments. The BMF classes are run by serving or ex-armed forces physical training instructors with recognised fitness training qualifications. They offer motivational and challenging workouts to encourage attendees to get fit in a fun and interactive environment. The classes take place in the beautiful parks of London and are a great opportunity to take in the scenery London has to offer. Making use of the great outdoors and using no equipment, apart from what nature provides, means these workouts are the lowest carbon footprint form of exercise you can do. The classes are designed to suit guests of all fitness and the groups are divided into three levels; beginners, intermediates and advanced, so whatever the level of ability there is something for every hotel guest. Hyde Park is the local BMF venue to The Cavendish and offers sessions everyday except Tuesday at several times in the morning and the evening. Other classes take place in Clapham Common, Hampstead Heath, Richmond Park, Wimbledon Common, Battersea Park and Wandsworth Common and guests of the hotel will be able to attend any session in London.

  • The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory
    C THE CAMPAIGN FOR REAL ALE The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory The information The Regional Inventory listings are found on pages 13–47, where the entries are arranged alphabetically by postal districts and, within these, by pub names. The exceptions are outer London districts which are listed towards the end. Key Listed status Statutory listing: whether a pub building is statutorily listed or not is spelled out, together with the grade at which it is listed LPA Local planning authority: giving the name of the London borough responsible for local planning and listed building matters ✩ National Inventory: pubs which are also on CAMRA’s National Inventory of Pub interiors of Outstanding Historic Interest Public transport London is well served by public transport and few of the pubs listed are far from a bus stop, Underground or rail station. The choice is often considerable and users will have no di≤culty in easily reaching almost every pub with the aid of a street map and a transport guide. A few cautionary words The sole concern of this Regional Inventory is with the internal historic fabric of pubs – not with qualities like their atmosphere, friendliness or availability of real ale that are featured in other CAMRA pub guides. Many Regional Inventory pubs are rich in these qualities too, of course, and most of them, but by no means all, serve real ale. But inclusion in this booklet is for a pub’s physical attributes only, and is not to be construed as a recommendation in any other sense.

  • Parks Open Spaces Timeline
    Wandsworth Council Parks time line There are many large green open places in south west London. The commons of Barnes, Battersea, Clapham, Putney, Streatham, Tooting, Wandsworth and Wimbledon date from ‘time immemorial’. Though largely comprising the wastes or heathland of a parish, the commons were integral to mediaeval land settlements and were owned by lords of the manors. As London developed during the nineteenth century the land was increasingly developed for housing. Several legal battles took place to defend the commons as open land. Garratt Green had long been ‘defended’ by the infamous Mayors of Garratt elections. Listed below are the green places in the Borough of Wandsworth that are managed by Wandsworth Parks Service. Further historic information can be found in the individual site management plans. 1858 A Royal Commission into housing recommended creating Battersea Park, Kennington Park, and Victoria Park in Hackney with formal and informal gardens as a way offering moral improvement to an area. Health was a matter of fresh air, exercise and diet, rather than one of medical resources. 1885 Battersea Vestry created Christchurch Gardens as ‘an outdoor drawing room’.
