An excellent riverside London walk from Chiswick to Hammersmith with lovely pubs and history and a Fullers Brewery tour!
This makes a perfect pub crawl and the pubs are really ancient with river views.
We also visit Chiswick House and William Hogarth's house.
A highly recommended tour of the Fullers Brewery where they brew London Pride and many other beers.
The excellent Villa di Geggiano restaurant where you can buy wine by Sting and Trudie.
Chiswick Mall with many 18th century houses and St Nicholas Chiswick Church.
The ghost of Hammersmith, Minder, Bottom, Hammersmith Odeon and much much more!!

Shame on you, Joolz, for not crediting Noel Coward with London Pride. It is my favorite of his songs, written as a love letter to a city that was being destroyed.

Decades ago my wife and I were in London and wanted to go to the Chiswick house and gardens. Being from the USA we were asking what bus/train would take us there and we were pronouncing it Chess-wick. Well, it wasn't until we had asked about six people that we learn it is pronounced Chis-ick. 🤓

@laurenfletcher8537 Год назад

I used to live near Chiswick and Hammersmith in Shepherds Bush, this was all walking distance from me. I did this walk many times, it was so lovely to see all the familiar spots and learn about the history. I watched Sandman on Netflix recently and noticed they filmed along the river between Furnival Gardens and Hammersmith Bridge. The scene where Dream and Death go visit the old man is in one of the apartment blocks overlooking the river. I really miss this part of West London, I was very fond of it. ❤️

This brought back some amazing memories for me. I was born just off of Fulham Palace Road and all of the area you’ve shown, was my childhood / teen stamping ground. My father was one of the surveyors responsible for the renovation of Butterwick, which is the area in the centre of Hammersmith roundabout. Hammersmith Odeon is where I used to go to Saturday morning pictures, and years later, I saw the commodores with Lionel Richie live on stage at the same place. I used to drink in The Rutland which is next door to The Blue Anchor, and run by a wonderful couple, Mike and Thea. Fun fact about the Rutland…Elkie Brooks used to own property very close by and would often be seen at the bar of The Rutland. Nice lady. Anyway, thank you for the tour of my childhood home. Such happy times.

I worked at Harrods in the early 1970s, and it was true that you could then order anything, their telegraphic address was "Harrodseverything"; in those days they had a pet department which stocked puppies, kittens and rabbits, but you could order any exotic animal you wanted and they would obtain it for you. Alongside the Harrods Furniture Depository was the Harrodian Club, a sports and social club for Harrods employees which was sold by the store and is now the site of the Harrodian School in Barnes.
