I always enjoy doing this walk in reverse in the evenings – starting in Woolwich and ending in Greenwich, walking towards the Thames barrier, Canary Wharf and the City…..The route follows the Thames Path with lots of interesting points along the way. There may even be a nice sunset.
There are several refreshment points along the route that we may choose to visit, including two good riverside pubs on the East side of Greenwich (Enderby House and the Cutty Sark) where we may opt to have a meal. In Greenwich proper there are a number of further options…..

I think there were #8 on the walk - there were several later starters including me and two who intercepted us near the Millennium Dome. Another joined us for dinner at the Cutty Sark. The Woolwich starters had a refreshment stop at the Hope and Anchor too. It was #grey-but-warm. Interesting artworks along the route. A lovely evening out in good company
