Derelict London - Photography, Social History and Guided Walking Tours
Picture
​​Paul Talling's Derelict London tour of Whitechapel & Bethnal Green
Disused derelict railway arch of Fleet Street Hill (not Pedley Street) on guided walking tour
A walk covering many of the sites covered on the website and in the latest edition of Paul's Derelict London book including the derelict exteriors of the Rex Cinema, parts of the Royal London Hospital, the former Shoreditch Underground Station & a dilapidated Whitechapel drinking fountain.

In addition to more random dereliction there will be some stories of the Krays, Jack the Ripper and plenty of tangents including the KLF, Suzi Quattro, Cock Sparrer, The Libertines, old railway arches, fly-tipping, rats, Minder & written off black taxis. Plus touching on the Black Ditch, one of London's Lost Rivers and the Seven Stars in Brick Lane featured in the first edition of Derelict London and tracing the social history of way over a dozen more lost pubs along the walk.

These guided walking tours with Paul Talling sell out of tickets several months ahead. Click the WeGotTickets logo for upcoming tour dates and availability.
