The walk will be led by Len Reilly, historian and volunteer archivist for Blackheath Society.

Although administratively part of London from the mid-19th century, Woolwich has had more of the character of an independent town, or even regional centre. 

Len will visit the civil institutions that gave it that status: its businesses, the poly, and the local administration and examine their changing fortunes in more recent times. (It will inevitably touch on the town's military role, but that isn't the main focus for the walk.)

Further details to be announced.
