Description

Walk ends at 'East India' DLR station.

Stop for lunch, coffee, feeding and changing at Poplar Union where there is also a gorgeous playground if your little one needs to let off some steam!

'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. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.

You are welcome to come along if you are pregnant, and to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.

What you'll see and hear:
- The ACTUAL 'Nonnatus House', where the nuns and nurses lived, and the parish hall used for antenatal classes.
- Streets where Chummy knocked over her future policeman husband on her bike.
- Chrisp Street Market from the Meg'n'Mave and Frank and Peggy stories. And where Sister Monica Joan stole a bracelet.
- Curate Tom's All Saint's Church, where Tom & Barbara, Chummy & Sergeant Noakes get married; where Reggie's mum dies; venue of the Boy Scouts group.
- Site of Poplar Workhouse which treated Frank and Peggy, Jane and Mrs Jenkins so badly.
- 'Stinkhouse Bridge' and the Limehouse 'Cuts', where Mary slept when she first came to London and met Zakir.
- 1930s 'walk-up' blocks of flats, such as those lived in by Len and Conchita Warren and their 25 children!
- Mission to Seamen's Institute, where everyone holes up during the big freeze.
- Remains of East India Docks, where the Swedish captain's daughter gave birth on the ship, and Sister Mary Cynthia was attacked.
- and more...
