Totally Thames: Bankside Foreshore Archaeological Walk
Banksides history is more intense than that of the City of London, the other side of the river. A heavy prehistoric presence is followed by the Romans and all periods through to today. It was the red-light district in the Tudor period and on the foreshore, evidence can be discovered of the money pots used in the many theatres found in the area. See what people ate and drank, what jobs they undertook, what items they had in their house as well as their bad habits.
Come for a morning stroll with Dr Fiona Haughey and explore the varied life on the southern bank of the Thames through the ages - all to be found beneath your feet on the Bankside foreshore.
Please ensure you wear sensible foot wear as the foreshore is an uneven and sometimes muddy surface. This event is for over 16s. Access to the foreshore is by stairs only.
