TARA local history walk – Saturday 19 March 2022


Celia has discovered instructions for a one-hour self-guided walk around our area published by Lambeth Libraries and is trialling a group walk for TARA. Feel free to join her. No need to book. No charge. All very informal.

The walk’s description says: “Take a one hour walk through the streets around our local library and discover some of Lambeth’s hidden histories. This walk takes you through the site of the Tradescants’ house and gardens where seventeenth century visitors would come to view the the world’s first public museum collection; on past the Regency buildings of the Beaufoy vinegar works; through the green haven of Vauxhall Park; and on to the architectural transformation of the area around Nine Elms and the Wandsworth Road – all to be found within a one hour circuit of South Lambeth Library.”

Meet outside Tate South Lambeth Library, 180 South Lambeth Road, London SW8 1QP for 11am on Saturday 19 March 2022.
