All change at King’s Cross

March 14, 2024 @ 11:00 - 13:00

Join Mike Marriott’s walk for a look around the “new” King’s Cross.
The area formerly used for goods yards behind King’s Cross station has now been transformed. Come and see how on this walk!

200 years ago King’s Cross was a rather desolate place, marked by brick kilns, rubbish heaps and slums. The arrival of the railways changed the area forever: on this walk we will discover the traces of King’s Cross past – pioneering stations, model dwellings, splendid hotels and many historic building and structures which have been beautifully reimagined and repurposed for 21st century living.

The proceedings from this walk will be donated to the homeless charity The Connection at St. Martin’s.
