On Tuesday 21 October we will revisit the ruins of St Dunstan in the East, last visited sometime before Covid. Regulars will remember this fabulous Church down near the Tower of London. Most of the walls are standing, along with the arched window apertures, but no significant roof following the bombing in the War. The interior of the Church is now a garden, and the walls are covered with creepers. Hopefully our visit will catch the autumn colours on the climbers. Our previous visit was when the climbers were green, and you can view our images here: (Please scroll down the page to find the St Dunstan images.)
We will meet at 11 o'clock in St Dunstan's.
There is no rain cover, except possibly in the tower, though depending on the direction of the rain, it may be possible to sketch from the shelter of the walls and under an umbrella. No loos either! The nearest cafe is Indra's net cafe (which has excellent reviews), which is in the Light Centre Monument, accessible via St Mary At Hill street close by. There may be others not showing up on a google map search.
The nearest tube stations are Monument and Bank, and there is an eight to ten minute walk from them.
In the event of heavy rain, we could go to All Hallows by the Tower, which is a five minute walk away.
Please bring your sketching stools (though there are benches) and umbrellas, as appropriate.
Sue's telephone number for the day is 07975 864 142.
