Goe no more to Brainford
vnlesse you loue a Punke
for that wicked sinnefull towne
hath made me drunke
come follow me.

Thomas Ravenscroft (1609)

​Goe no more to Brainford is our ninth London walk. We go westward, to the old town of Brentford: more ancient than London, and on occasion more noisome. Join us for tranquil rivers, art deco wonders, proper pubs, and a poignant history of transience and travel.
