SUMMARY:Union Chapel Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Union Chapel has towered over Upper Street in Islington since the 1870s and today thrives as an award-winning venue\, homelessness project and a working radical church. \nOn the tour\, led by an expert Islington Guided Walks guide\, you’ll see this architectural gem up close and discover the building’s fascinating history. \nThe Grade I listed Victorian Gothic Chapel is one of the largest Nonconformist churches in London. It houses an important Father Henry Willis organ that is one of few left in the UK with an original hydraulic blowing system\, stunning stained glass windows and a distinctive octagonal interior built for acoustics and visibility. \nTake a tour and learn more about Islington’s heritage\, the Chapel’s triumphant survival after a wartime bomb\, and the fascinating story of its near demolition in the 1980s\, at a time when Victorian architecture was only just being appreciated.

SUMMARY:The River Fleet from King's Cross to Farringdon
DESCRIPTION:This walk traces the route of the now-subterranean River Fleet\, which also marks the border between today’s Camden and Islington boroughs. ‘Beating the Bounds’ around the borders between parishes\, land ownerships and similar is an ancient tradition\, where the boundary was literally paced out and marked with stones each year. Our route also explores nearby signs of previous boundaries of parishes\, vestries\, water conduits and historic landowners.\nAlong the way\, we’ll see varied architecture from pretty Georgian and Victorian terraces to old burial grounds\, narrow passages that were once slums and restored industrial buildings; see if we can spot historic boundary markers; meet mediaeval monks\, Tudor and Victorian philanthropists\, a dynasty of 19C architects and builders; and hear of lost wells and pleasure gardens.
