Herne Hill Heritage Trail walk – Central, led by Robert Holden. Meet at Herne Hill Velodrome, Entrance in Burbage Road SE21 7AF, 2:30pm.
“We begin at the Burbage Road entrance of the Herne Hill Velodrome, the oldest extant cycle track in the UK. It was used for the 1948 Olympics, and today is still a hive of activity. We shall pass a
sports field that has its own war memorial, a grand viaduct, a house that has had three distinguished residents but has only two plaques, and a hidden folly. We shall finish at the Grafton Ballroom and be home in time for Strictly Come Dancing. ”
