* We will start with the *Tower Hill Sundial*, the 3.7m high bronze sculpture by Edwin Russell and Lorne McKean that was installed in 1990. As well as telling the time, the circle of the dial tells the history of London and London transport. It runs from the Roman city of Londinium in AD 43 right through to the building of the Thames Barrier between 1975 and 1982. * From there a short stroll via Tower Hill Memorial to see Saint Dunstan-in-the-East, the church that was largely destroyed in the Second World War and the ruins are now a public garden. From here we will proceed to All Hallows-by-the-Tower, the oldest church in the City that was founded in AD 675 to see their Crypt Museum. * We will then proceed via the Tower of London to St Katherine Docks marina and the very instagramable the Dickens Inn. We will then carry on via Wapping, Shadwell basin, the very scenic Thames path and Limehouse marina. * We will see a number of historic pubs along the route including the Prospect of Whitby (circa 1520) and The Grapes (circa 1583), the latter owned by Sir Ian McKellen (yes it's Gandalf's pub now). We will then arrive at Canary Wharf where the walk ends. Optional drinks/ lunch at the end of the walk.
