Brixton, a bustling and vibrant part of south London with a tumultuous history. This walking tour takes you on a journey through culture, heritage and significant landmarks and the pivotal moments and iconic figures that have shaped the community and area.
The tour will take in homes built originally for ‘pious and aged women’ as well as Southwyck House or more locally known as the ‘Barrier Block’.
