David Whittaker, Blackheath Society member and long time resident of Maidenstone Hill will lead a fascinating walk round an area that was a well known topographical feature north of Blackheath Hill, but exists now only as a road name. Over the years the area has seen many changes, it has been an important source for building materials some of which have had unfortunate results. The area housed the Pest House, Workhouse and a Plague Pit. Needless to say there are some tragic stories to be told. We will locate the homes of interesting past residents.
Meet at 10.15 at Cafe Rouge, Stockwell Street, Greenwich for coffee and an introduction to the area.
Please book your place through Eventbrite.
There is no charge for this walk, but donations to the Blackheath Society will be requested on joining the walk.
