Event details

Thursday 29 October, 18.30 to 19.30

Join us for a virtual tour of Newington Green.

Whilst this is a smaller area than our usual Walks, Newington Green has a fascinating history. Once an aristocratic hunting retreat to the north of London, it became a fashionable centre of dissent from the seventeenth century.

Newington Green is surrounded by buildings from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries and has some of the oldest townhouses in London.

This virtual walk will take place on Zoom. Instructions on how to join will be sent to registered participants just before the event.

Registration is via eventbrite - clicking the Book Now link will take you to eventbrite to reserve your place. 

About the London Group
The SPAB London group was formed in 2015 and it brings together over 1,000 SPAB members living or working in the metropolitan area. London’s diversity of built heritage gives members the opportunity to share knowledge of historic buildings, conservation projects and craft skills. The SPAB London group offers visits to see conservation works on historic buildings, lectures, concerts and its monthly Walks to Nowhere, guided walking tours discovering London’s many distinctive neighbourhoods and ending at an historic pub. Recent walks traversed Bloomsbury, Smithfield and Borough.
