SUMMARY:Southwark Borough Refuge Walk
DESCRIPTION:Meet London Walk Guide Keith Turpin at the exit of Borough Tube for a unique walk through North Southwark by the River Thames.\n \non Friday 16th September –  from 7-9pm Tickets HERE\n \nKeith Turpin was invited to create a unique walk to celebrate Southwark’s role as London Borough of Refuge. For this inspirallondon night walk he takes us on a gentle preambulation by segment 2 of the trail.

Your donation supports the work of the Community Interest Company and our collective socially-engaged work. \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Special Online event for Watery Foxes of Woolwich
DESCRIPTION:JOIN us tonight online 7pmish to 9.30pm – via livestream remote listening: \n“In early May 2020 during the first period of the Covid pandemic\, we launched a series of Night Skulks\, as a way of connecting back into a forbidden landscape. Being together without fear and experiencing life again\, these walks\, conducted individually or in small ‘family’ groups mimicked the night scavenging of urban foxes. But to make these night shift less literal we imagined ourselves as foxes\, somewhat transformed into watery beasts\, animals adapted to water\, fluid and fleeting as the shadowy night. Tracing our way along a variety of water courses that flowed near to or by our homes’ front doors\, our sensibility transformed now as hybrid animals\, we confronted another sense of dwelling within this city. We witnessed the city\, floating on a floodtide\, no longer made up from firm ground\, liquefied\, returned to a silty marshland. We saw how this city unexpectedly quiet\, with its emptied streets\, offered us unusual opportunities to see the place anew.” (Charlie Fox – ‘Waylaid by bodies of water’ (unpublished chapter GroundWalking London: To Walk and Re-enchant the City forthcoming 2023) \nFor tonights night skulk from Gallions Reach to Woolwich – tracing backwards on segment 21 of inspirallondon trail – listen to our live broadcast streaming of the walk here: \nhttp://locus.creacast.com:9001/thamesmead_wild_chorus_thamesmead_london.mp3\n\nFrom around 7pm to 9.30pm listen to live acoustic walk following the traces and scent paths of urban foxes plus reading\, discussion and soundscapes)\n\n\n\nThis broadcast is made possible because of the international artistic research platform locussonus and through our longterm collaboration with soundcamp. For the night we are grateful to the expertise and committment of associate artist Calum f Kerr for the skilled use of his binaural microphone/headphones.

SUMMARY:Watery Fox Walk to Woolwich
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 17th September Watery Fox Skulk to Woolwich – Meet at Gallions Reach DLR exit at 7pm \nInspiral collective organises an early evening night walk; following our lockdown fox skulking –  we will  be retracing the trail backwards from Gallions Reach DLR to borrow under the Thames to Woolwich\, searching for urban foxes in Woolwich old Naval Docks. SIGN UP for Tickets HERE \n \nThe walk starts from Gallions Reach at 7pm and will finish at Woolwich Station at 10pm. Starting on the Northbank of River near King George V Dock and tunnelling under Thames as night falls we follow in the footsteps of watery foxes and other salty sea dogs. With tales of Woolwich’s ancient history and one year after a series of night walks organised for Hyderacity this night exploration allows us to see the city through non-human eyes and to listen to its future-past in other ways. As the urban fox\, a watery type\, we follow our scent back and forth to Woolwich Old Docks\, in the company of Sailor Forbes steps\, led by inspirallondon Director Charlie Fox. \nCharlie will be reading extracts from forthcoming book and sharing other forgotten writers. \nThis is a gentle night walk but come prepared with good shoes\, some refreshments and a spirit of adventure. Once in the tunnel you can never be sure of where one might re-appear.

SUMMARY:Branches of the Wogebourne
DESCRIPTION:Branches of the Wogebourne – Meet 11 am 24th September at  \nInspiralLondon’s resident ornithological investigator J D Swann will lead a walk along a possible route of the lost Wogebourne river\, its source emerged from Oxleas Wood on Shooters Hill\, the highest point in Greater South London at 132 metres. It was called in 14th century manuscripts the Wogebourne or Woghbourne becoming widely known as Plumstead River in the following centuries. However\, by the 1970’s much of the river had been enclosed just as the Westbourne had been in West London or the Fleet in the City; it had then become the Wickham Valley Waterway\, shifting names for a mysterious watercourse. SIGN UP here \n \nObservation of wildlife will be encouraged as we pass through Shrewsbury Park and East Wickham Open Space. There the Wogebourne branches between and under Plumstead housing towards Abbey Wood Station\, it was exposed there during the construction of Crossrail in 2015 (opening 2018 and counting) where it is referred to in plans as a stormwater drain. The branch we will be following is through Bostall Heath and Woods into the ancient Lesnes Abbey Woods with its ponds and streams. We walk past the 11th century Lesnes Abbey ruins into the South Thamesmead Estate and to Southmere Lake. The lake was created in the late 1960’s as part of the drainage system for the new Thamesmead development; there an underground channel takes the remnants of the Wogebourne to the Thames at the Crossness Pumping Station outfall. \nSaturday 11th September Starting at: 11am Welling Station (Zone 4) – Meet outside main entrance (platform 1). Finishing: at Southmere Lake\, Thamesmead – then 1km (accompanied by J D) walk to Abbey Wood Station (Zone 4). Sign up HERE \nApprox 11 kilometres/ 7 miles walk – 4 hours (approx) – 8+ under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult – Full walk is not buggy and wheelchair accessible. \nJ D Swann appears courtesy of Calum F Kerr \nTerrain: Long uphill climb at Shooter’s Hill then largely downhill until Bostall Woods and Lesnes Abbey Woods in which there are several steep slopes and stairs. Oxleas Woods and Lesnes Abbey Woods after rain can be particularly muddy so appropriate footwear and weather-appropriate clothing recommended. Binoculars and Recording devices for nature are encouraged. There is a Café/WC at Oxleas Meadows\, Lesnes Abbey has a Café/WC (closes 3.30pm). \nPart of InspiralLondon unique season of Autumn Walks.
