A walk tracing the course of The River Neckinger, one of the Lost Rivers of London. The river rises on St George's Fields, now the park around the Imperial War Museum. From here it follows Brook Drive to Elephant and Castle. We walk along Newington Causeway to Borough High Street and pick up the echoes of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales which references this spot at the start of the pilgrimage. Our walk then follows the course of the river along Long Lane, past the Kipling Estate and the end of Bermondsey Street. Bermondsey Square sits on the site of Bermondsey Abbey, once one of the most important ecclesiastical institutions in Europe. The river is said to flow along Abbey Street which was once navigable as far as the Abbey. We follow the Neckinger across Druid Street and Jamaica Road to an area that was once known as Jacob's Island. Mill Street takes us to St Saviour's Wharf where the Neckinger makes its confluence with the Thames.
