WALK: Loddiges Walk with Sean Gubbins

After a short visit inside Hackney's 2nd oldest house 195 Mare Street (if available), this 1.5-2 hours walk will take you up Mare Street. The walk will trace where German immigrant Joachim Conrad Loddiges started his plant business which, with his sons, developed into the world-famous Hackney Botanical Nursery, with its Grand Palm House, exotic Camelia Houses and the largest arboretum of its time.

Meet at 195 Mare Street
