ABOUT THIS EVENT
Bow to Islington Canal History Walk
Friday 15th August 2025 at 2.00pm.
Duration: 2 hours
Start point: Blu Ivy Cafe, Block C, 24 Stoneway Walk, Globe Town,
London, E3 5SH (What3Words: ///answer.gasp.formal)
End point: The end point is the tow path to Islington Tunnel.
(What3Words /// client.mess.unions).
When the walk "ends" you'll be taken to Coalbrooke Row Gardens and
then along Duncan Street to Upper Street Islington where there are
buses and the Angel Islington Tube station for dispersal.
The walk, run by Canal & River Trust, will be led by volunteer walk
leaders who are full of interesting information about the local area.
Why not come along, be outside, meet new people and discover some of
the history of the canals and the surrounding areas. Our walks are fun
and friendly.
The Walk Leader is a qualified historian with a huge amount of
knowledge and experience.
We'll meet at the Blu Ivy Cafe (Stop D Haverfield Green/Grove Rd on
Bus route 8 is the closest to Blu Ivy Cafe) then go to Islington
tunnel (and then up from the tow path to Angel Islington for dispersal
by tube/bus). They'll be opportunities to stop along the way.
Well behaved dogs are welcome to join the walk, but must be kept on
the lead at all times.
The great thing about walking is that you do not need any fancy
equipment. Please just wear comfortable shoes and bring a jacket if
raining.
