Aldgate tube station, Aldgate High Street exit
Guided by
This walk will look at London’s buildings through the stones used to construct them. We will concentrate on the ‘post-modernist architecture’ of the 1980s and 1990s when exotic stones were imported for decorative cladding from all over the world. We will see examples of spectacular granites formed in the process of building mountains and even stones that were formed by the impact of a meteorite 2 billion years ago. This Urban Geology walk is guided by the distinguished UCL Geologist Ruth Siddall.
Mountain Building & Meteorites in the City of London takes place at TBA.
The meeting point for Mountain Building & Meteorites in the City of London is Aldgate Tube, exit on Aldgate High Street.
If you can’t make one of the regularly scheduled, just-turn-up, Mountain Building & Meteorites in the City of London it can always be booked as a private tour. If you go private you can have the Mountain Building & Meteorites in the City of London walk – or any other London Walk – on a day and at a time that suits your convenience. We’ll tailor it to your requirements. Ring Fiona or Mary on 020 7624 3978 or email us at [email protected] and we’ll set it up and make it happen for you. A private London Walk – they’re good value for an individual or couple and sensational value for a group – makes an ideal group or educational or birthday party or office (team-building) or club outing.
A private London Walk makes a fab gift – be it a birthday or anniversary or Christmas present or whatever. Merchandise schmerchandise (gift wrapped or not) – but giving someone an experience, now that’s special. Memories make us rich.
