Monday walk with Paul - Fabulous 7 mile walk from Greenwich to Tower Gateway

My mobile just in case. It is not a smart phone! 07530 675739 Paul. Cost of this meet up is £5

11.am Meet for coffee inside the Wetherspoons Pub the Gate Clock which is next to the Cutty Sark DLR station, there will be a meet up sign on the table. ,

After coffee, we will then walk under the Greenwich tunnel to Island Gardens and follow the Thames Path via Canary Wharf to have lunch at The Prospect of Whitby

 Please confirm if you are going to have lunch Probably dating from around 1520, this riverside pub claims to be the oldest on the Thames: Samuel Pepys and Charles Dickens reputedly drank here, and it was once a handy spot for a pint before or after an execution at the adjacent gallows, where pirates were regularly hanged. The gallows may have gone, but the uneven flagstone floors, dark rooms and a few of the old East End characters remain – although they've been joined by throngs of camera-toting tourists. It's now owned by Taylor Walker, so you could bend your elbow with a pint of 1730 Pale Ale while admiring the wood-panelled interior and pewter-topped bar, before sidling out to the small terrace for a view of the Wapping shoreline. After lunch we will make our way to Goodmans Fields {Wetherspoons Pub} at Tower Gateway for a drink. For those that do not want to complete the whole walk after you have had lunch Wapping Station is nearby. For those that complete the walk, Tower Gateway DLR and Tower Hill underground stations are within a few minutes walk. For this walk trainers would be ok to wear. Distance is about 7 miles
