East Tilbury walking tour – Czech Shoes and Mucking Flats

20th May 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Ninth in a series of walks along the Thames organised by Footprints of London, this walk looks at the Bauhaus inspired Bata shoe factory built in the 1930s with a surrounding village for workers including a school and a cinema. The factory was closed down in 2005 but is now a conservation area.

The walk starts at East Tilbury station and then heads to the river passing Coalhouse Fort.  You will then walk along the river wall to Mucking Flats – an area of marshland popular with wildfowl with views of passing ships and a view along the river to the sea.

The walk finishes back at East Tilbury station and is 5 miles in total, duration 3.5 hours.

Admission £10-£15 see booking details on Eventbrite below.
