Overview

Unlike its sibling, The City of London, The City of Westminster is quite a large place. I have therefore broken the circuit around its extremities into a couple of walks. This section starts at Temple Underground Station, in the far southeast, and finishes in the far northwest at Westbourne Park.

On the way we will pass through The Inns of Court, Covent Garden and The Regent's Park, where we will stop for lunch. Then up through Primrose Hill and across through the suburbs of St John's Wood and Kilburn before coming back along the canal to Westbourne Park. 

I won't be sticking slavishly to the boundary and will deviate to take more enjoyable routes.
