The Shores of Islington - an armchair cruise down the Fleet

Speaker: Lester Hillman
Time: 8:00 PM
Venue: Islington Town Hall, Upper Street, London N1

A few days off the full moon, Lester a former coxswain tonight steers the Society down the Fleet River with a richly illustrated armchair presentation that deftly navigates past to future. Charting a course from the heady heights of Highgate through the Farringdon Valley and the 'Clerk's Well' he will bring us to the tidal Thames.

Lester is the Academic Adviser to the Society. He will be familiar to members as a regular speaker and he recently focused attention on the Regent's Canal, another waterway that helps define Islington.
