A talk on the Regent's Canal - Lester Hillman

Tuesday 16th May 2017 7.00pm for 7.30pm

Cutting Edge - The Dark Side of the Regent's Canal

Venue - PaddingtonCentral Management suite. (1a Sheldon Square, Paddington. W2 6PY)

Here is a presentation that will dig the dirt, plunging the inky depths to reveal crime, fisticuffs, deception, pilfering, hoaxes, graffiti wars, Regency fraud, scandals and illicit discharges. Colourful personalities and dramatic events will feature in the richly illustrated presentation which will even venture into infringements of the Town & Country Planning Regulations.

Feel good heritage and environmental warm glow this is not. Come prepared.

For five decades Lester Hillman has been involved in the waterways and in particular the Regent's Canal. He writes, lectures and guides cruises and towpath walks supporting the London Canal Museum as a volunteer.
