Take a Historical Tour Around Chiswick Churchyard

---

Season of walks from Hounslow Heritage Guides continues

Chiswick Churchyard

The season of local guided walks continues this weekend with a tour of Chiswick Churchyard on Sunday 17 June.

The walk offers a chance to reflect on the likes of artists, William Hogarth, James McNeil Whistler and Philip James de Loutherbourg, buried alongside actor Charles Holland, and intriguingly Richard Wright, a bricklayer.

This is the only time this particular walk is taking place in this year's programme.

Hounslow Heritage Guides hold an annual programme of walks exploring local heritage. These are held on Sundays (and occasional bank holidays) between June and October.

All walks are taken at a gentle pace amd cost £3 (children are free) and no booking is required. Meet at 2:30pm at the steps to St. Nicholas Church at the junction of Church Street and Chiswick Mall.

They are led by voluntary guides, all members of the Hounslow Heritage Guides Association, now in its 24th year. Private walks and illustrated talks to choice are also available by prior arrangement.
