On 28 September 2013 some members of the Blackfen Past and Present Facebook Group joined me for a walk around Blackfen, taking in some of the historic aspects of the district. Starting at Merino Place, our walk lasted over three hours! It was lovely to share my research with others and to hear other people’s memories of the place. And of course we finished our walk with a pint in the George Staples.

A photographic version of the walk will be put on this website soon, for all those who live too far away to have joined us.
