Hi members of The Resident's Society of Mayfair and St. James's, We welcome you all this Sunday, join Lord Mayor Paul Dimoldenberg for a fun stroll through Mayfair’s rich history and hidden stories!
Meeting point: The Ritz — just beyond the south-east corner entrance. The walk will end at The Mayfair Library on South Audley Street.
1 hour 30 minutes walk, In-person only
Discover hidden gems, fascinating stories, and the unique character that makes this neighbourhood so special. Whether you are a long-time resident or new to the area, this walk offers a wonderful opportunity to experience Mayfair in a fresh light. Don’t miss this engaging and lively journey through time.
The walk will be led by the wonderful team of Sophie Campbell and Dr. Francis Boorman. Sophie is not only a Blue Badge Tour Guide, but also a journalist and author. Those who attended Dr Boorman’s previous lecture for The RSMSJ will know that his work as a historian of the area gives him exceptional insight. We can look forward to a thoroughly delightful afternoon.
Please register today, as spaces are limited.
The event is free for RSMSJ resident members and those interested in joining.
