We travel the short journey to Walthamstow in East London where we meet our Blue Badge Guide who joins us for a uniquely informative and entertaining day exploring this valley of contrasts. Whilst there we visit the splendid Georgian childhood home of William Morris. Famous for his many talents and interests from wallpaper and furniture to book publishing and politicking, our guide will take you through this award winning gallery dedicated to his life and work. After this we head through Epping Forest hearing about the long history of this ancient hunting ground and make our way to the genteel market town of Epping itself. Following time here we continue to Broxbourne where we board a broad beam boat for a 90 minute cruise on the River Lee which includes a cream tea as you watch life roll by.
