The Good Life Eatery, 1 St John's Wood High St, NW8 7NG
London is the ultimate urban sprawl. But hiding among the buildings and cars there are an estimated eight million trees. So who else do we share our city with? Do you have a neighbourhood goose? Are there really seals in the River Thames? Join Lucy Brown from wildlife conservation charity ZSL on a journey through London's wild alter-ego, via the parks and waterways of Camden and Westminster.
St. John's Wood
Our footsteps will peek into parks, church yards and waterways. Through these often overlooked corners, we will explore London's stories past and present, and get to know who else we share our city with.
