Meet at Cutty Sark next to the Foot Tunnel entrance. Start at 10:00am and will continue out and back, returning to Cutty Sark at approximately 13:30pm.  Mike K. leading. Route will follow the Thames Path and then round past the O2. From there will continue along the Thames Path past the Greek-inspired statues in North Greenwich and the Thames Barrier, eventually reaching Galleon’s Reach.  Galleon’s Reach holds historical significance as it was the place where the Princess Alice sank, costing 900 live in September of 1878. We will then join the Green Path towards Thamesmead murals and stop for group photos before proceeding on to Lesnes Abbey ruins for a coffee break. We will return by the Ridgeway path to Woolwich before joining the Thames Path again back to Greenwich.
