To celebrate #NationalWalkingMonth, Iā€™m walking from home in W13 to my office in EC1 (~11 miles), sticking to the historic London-Oxford highway (now part A4020/part A40). As in previous years, Iā€™ll post photos of whatever takes my fancy as I stroll. #WalkThisMay @livingstreets Iā€™m starting at the west end of West Ealing Broadway*

* Like several ā€˜Broadwaysā€™ along the A4020 in Ealing, the name may conjure up something more spacious than the reality. (Not that what space there is couldnā€™t be better used, mind.) ImageImageImage

Ten years after having done my first @livingstreets #WalkToWork, Iā€™m once again sauntering from home in Ealing to our office. Was W1, now EC1 - about 12 miles. Seems Iā€™ve picked a decent day for it & my first photos are of the lovely Lammas Park. Hold that name...
#WalkThisMay Quite a bit of Monty Pythonā€™s Flying Circus was filmed around here, back in the day. Lammas Park Gardens featured in the Spanish Inquisitionā€™s dash by bus to the Old Bailey...
