London Street Market Walks segues into its 20th banner year profiling more than 15 ancient street markets in London`s 33 boroughs, some in the most deprived areas of the city. All walks run for 3 hours and profile 3 markets. Prose/poetry is read `in situ`. As Sandra Shevey believes there is not just one time of the day or night to view the markets, she has devised a wide range of walks include a nighttime prowl; an early morning ramble; an antiques markets walk; an ethnic markets walk; and a midday markets walk (including some interiors) Walks run daily and are guided. Times vary. All walks run for 3 hours and profile 3 traditional fruit and veg markets.£25 excl Travelcard Contact: sandra_shevey@yahoo.com Sandra has also produced a fine DVD about 4 ancient London markets. Entitled `London`s Ancient Markets: Their Fight for Survival`, the documentary profiles Smithfield, Spitalfield, Borough and Covent Garden. 30 minutes long, it is digital, colour.Trailer at http://sandrashevey.tripod.com Obtainable at sandra_shevey@yahoo.com A great Christmas gift and/or way to familiarise before actually visiting the markets. |
