In this walk you will see the amazing contrast between the next-door neighbours King’s Cross and St Pancras, the controversy over the demolition and rebuilding of Euston in the 1960s, and the first steps towards London’s tube system.

Along the way, we’ll consider the changing nature of the streets and buildings that surround the stations and their impact on London’s society and culture.
