Stave Hill Ecology Park and Southwark Park, 3.5 miles

* We will meet at Canada Water tube station. We will then make our way to visit the Stave Hill Ecology Park. * Stave Hill itself is a 30-foot (9.1 m) high artificial mound in the shape of a truncated cone, with a viewing platform and relief map of the former docks in cast bronze by Michael Rizzello at the top. It provides views over Canary Wharf, the City of London, and much of south and central London; on clear days the view stretches as far as Wembley Stadium. * It was created in 1985 by the LDDC, using waste material and rubble from the works to fill and landscape the former commercial docks. * We will then make our way via the Surrey water to Southwark park to visit the ponds and gardens. We will then procede to Bermondsey tube station, this is where the walk ends. * For members who prefer a longer route, we can carry on to London Bridge for the local Wetherspoons.
