Overview

An interesting summer evening walk taking in some of Chelsea's famous addresses and following in the footsteps of artists such as Rossetti, Whistler, Turner and Singer Sargent.

After Cheyne Walk we cross the river at Battersea Bridge, join the Thames Path and enter Battersea Park, where there are public toilets, and end the walk at Battersea Power Station, where we will find an indoor or outdoor space for refreshments.

This is not a narrated walk but we will stop and make some reference to pointers in Stephen Millar's excellent 'London Hidden Walks 2'.
