Our September walk

Mellow fruitfulness, canalside industries and bustling café life – our September walk from Three Mills to Hackney Wick

Christine writes:

"The few intrepid EEWI walkers were treated to a welcome burst of blue sky and sunshine this morning. Starting at Three Mills we headed towards Hackney Wick. There was evidence of the changing season along the way (autumn blackberries, emerging ivy berries and who knew there was a row of old fruit laden apple trees canalside of the busy A12!). With talk of long lost canalside industries we passed the old Bryant & May match factory (remembering the women workers exposure to phosphorous causing the disease 'phossie jaw'). Arriving at bustling Hackney Wick our coffee /lunch stop was at Burnt Umber cafe. Thank you, fellow walkers for a lovely morning."

Fancy joining us for a walk? Look out for the next coming up blogpost for information.
