John's Birthday Walk Turnham Green to Kew Bridge, via leafy Chiswick

Join me for a lovely walk starting at Turnham Green station (on the District line) exploring one of London’s greenest suburbs.

We will meet at The Trinity Cafe at 11 am, leaving at 11.30am {come out of Turnham Green station, turn right and walk just a few 100 yards the Cafe is on the corner.}

We will walk along a Common, a Green, and go to Chiswick House & Gardens {as image above} and go through a cemetery before reaching charming Old Chiswick by the Thames.

After a pub lunch {please confirm if you want lunch} at a pub near the Fuller’s brewery (or bring your own to eat outdoors),

We embark on a long loop of the river familiar to fans of the Oxbridge Boat Race. Looking across to Barnes, Mortlake and Kew on the opposite bank, we find our way past meadows, sports fields and boathouses, a world away from the bustling streets earlier.

After a total walk of about 6 miles, our finishing point is an excellent multi-roomed pub by Kew Bridge, which has a spacious attractive garden if the weather is kind to us.

Next-door are Kew Bridge station and bus routes heading back to Turnham Green and beyond.

Time will be allowed for photographs
