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:Geoffrey Fletcher's Islington
DESCRIPTION:Discover some of the Islington locations that the artist Geoffrey Fletcher captured so lovingly in the 1960s and 1970s and learn about the area’s long and rich heritage. \n“Excellent walk – really interesting and a really great guide.” \nBest known for his 1962 book ‘The London That Nobody Knows’\, Geoffrey Fletcher’s sketches\, paintings\, books and weekly column in the Telegraph recorded the London he feared was vanishing in the decades after World War II. \nHe was especially fond of Islington\, with its markets\, Georgian terraces and varied Victorian architecture. Some of it has disappeared and the character of the area has changed. \nHowever\, Fletcher would still recognise many of the buildings and streets he drew or painted 60 years ago. \nThe walk will last approximately two hours. Please be prepared for all weathers! \nStart: outside Angel tube station\, Islington High Street\, N1 8XX \nFinish: Essex Road (close to Essex Road station) \n“Great walk\, Jonathan\, thanks!”\n“A fascinating walk through 60s and 70s Islington – or what remains!” \nTickets from Guided walks\, London blog | London On The Ground

SUMMARY:St Mary Islington - Church and Tower Tour
DESCRIPTION:Discover the history of Islington’s first parish church and climb the 120 steps to the top of tower for the best panoramic views across London. \nSt Mary’s church on Upper Street has played a central role in the history of Islington for over a thousand years and\, during this time\, several different churches have stood on the site\, leaving an eclectic mix of architectural styles. \nFind out about the 12th century Norman church\, its 15th century medieval successor and the 18th century rebuild. During The Blitz of World War II St Mary’s suffered extensive damage – only the tower and steeple survived the bomb. The church was rebuilt in 1956 as a fascinating example of post-war reconstruction\, enhanced by many unique artworks of interest. \n⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “A brilliant tour… We were impressed by [the guides’] knowledge\, enthusiasm and storytelling. And the view of London from the tower… is a feast for the eyes!” \n⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “A very interesting 90 minutes. Guide friendly\, well-prepared\, informative and easy to listen to. Getting to the top of the 18th-century church tower is the highlight.” \nFor more info and booking for this tour please use this website link. \nThis tour is repeated monthly – to see all our up-coming tours please visit our Eventbrite page here
