Description

Walk Starts: Outside Shoreditch High Street station
Walk Ends: The Museum of The Home where there is a cafe and baby change as well (next to Hoxton Station)

With a stop after about an hour at Hoxton Square for refreshment and/or lunch and baby change.

Winner of 'Best Parent Activity' at the 'Bablands Awards', 'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group.

You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.

This walk has been written and is guided by City of London guide and co-author of 'Women from Hackney's History', Sue Doe.

What you'll see and learn about:

- See where two Victorian actresses managed their respective theatres

- The probable site of one of Elizabeth Cresswell’s 17th century brothels

- Where suffragette Sylvia Pankhurst was arrested

- Where the most successful 18th century businesswoman had her first premises

- A reminder of aristocratic nuns

- A successful feminist publishing house

- The home of the Queen of the Shoplifters

- The garden that was created by a talented artist who died in the Grenfell fire tragedy

- The one remaining part of the asylum where writer Mary Lamb was a patient

- The venue for the first marriage of the Queen of the Music Halls

- An original Victorian music hall which was at the heart of the community for decades - with 3 inspirational women

- Where a pioneering female engineer and inventor trained

- Where a 16th century female poet and dramatist lived

- The workplace of a nurse executed in the WW1
