Walworth History Tour

Described by the Anglo-Saxons as the ‘Farm of Briton’, the architecture of the Walworth now ranges from impressive eighteenth-century houses to more recent concrete tower blocks. Today, the area is built-up, urban and dotted with housing estates, markets, shops and pubs; little is left of the green space that used to exist here. From Boundary Lane to Old Kent Road and beyond, Walworth History Tour takes a journey through this district, where you will discover the past of this ever-changing part of the capital.
