Free, all welcome. Booking required.

Let our guide, Carol Hebbs, of Tottenham Heritage Walks, take you on a guided tour of 400 years of history around the village-like area of Scotland Green and Carbuncle Alley in Tottenham.

We start at Bluecoats, once a school, established in 1735, and today one of three pubs to be found on Scotland Green. We also explore the path of "Garbel Ditch" (recorded on the 1619 map of Tottenham), now a hidden part of the Moselle, which was diverted as early as the 15th century.
