London Walks

London is rich in history, and walks around the capital are myriad. No reservations required, just turn up! Walks may be near the Barbican venue or further afield.

In the spirit of Janes's Walk and Wikimedia, we expect the walks to be developed over the course of the conference, with input from participants. Guides will be experienced and know the area well, but discovery will be a key element. Feel free to suggest your own walks below.
