KINGS, QUEENS, CLUBS and KNAVES

A Guided Walk with Sue King

Thursday 16th July 2009, 6:15pm

Sue King, AKS member and Blue Badge Guide, will again be taking us on a guided walk, this time exploring Royal London. We might catch the whiff of cigars and port wafting from the doors of the exclusive clubs of St James as we tread in the footsteps of Kings, Queens, their courtiers and paramours. Discover the 500 year history of St James and the Royal Court. There are several skeletons to be found in Royal cupboards and interesting tales of life behind the closed doors of the clubs.

We will meet on the corner of Pall Mall at the south end of Haymarket (just west of Trafalgar Square). Nearest tube stations Charing Cross, Piccadilly Circus. MAP

This will be a gentle circular walk of one and a half to two hours, starting on Pall Mall, and ending at Admiralty Arch (just to the south of Trafalgar Square). Our final destination will be Walkers Wine and Ale Bar, tucked away behind Whitehall.

Cost: £5 for AKS members and their families and guests.

The walk will be limited to around 20 people so book early to avoid disappointment.
