**Metropolitan Walkers is part of the Ramblers, Britain's walking charity. All welcome for 3 'taster' walks, after which please join the Ramblers - info on the [Met Walkers website](https://www.metropolitan-walkers.org.uk/how-to-join/)** This walk follows the dramatic aftermath of the Gunpowder Plot, tracing the final journey of Guy Fawkes and his fellow conspirators through some of London's most historic sites. We will begin at the Tower of London, where Guy Fawkes was imprisoned after being discovered beneath Parliament on 5 November 1605. Under orders from King James I, he was subjected to interrogation and torture, eventually confessing and revealing the names of his fellow plotters on 9 November. From there, we will make our way to Westminster Hall, where eight conspirators were tried and found guilty of high treason. We will explore the locations connected to their grisly fates: four of the men were executed in St Paul's Churchyard, while four others, including Fawkes himself, were hanged, drawn and quartered at Old Palace Yard outside the Palace of Westminster. Finally, we will retire to Cask, where we hope to find plenty of barrels of beer and absolutely no barrels of gunpowder! **Easy \| 4\.7 miles / 7\.6 km** **Start: Meet outside Tower Hill Underground station, opposite the exit by the coffee tram @ 07:00 pm** Postcode: EC3N 4DJ **End: Pimlico Underground station** Postcode: SW1V 2PU
