Out & About Bloomsbury to King's Cross walk, London
6 July 2008: Out & About Bloomsbury to King's Cross walk
This month's walk takes in contrasting areas with a variety of architecture and historical associations.
The next Out & About walk will be from Bloomsbury to King's Cross.
Bloomsbury was developed by the Russell family in the 17th and 18th centuries into a fashionable residential area. It is notable for its array of gardened squares, its literary connections (exemplified by the Bloomsbury Group), and its numerous hospitals and academic institutions.
The King's Cross area on the other hand once had a reputation for being a red light district and run-down. However, rapid regeneration since the mid 1990s has rendered this reputation largely out-of-date. Since November 2007 the area has been the terminus of the international rail service at St. Pancras International station where Eurostar trains now arrive and depart to and from France and Belgium. Regeneration continues under the auspices of King's Cross Central which is a very major redevelopment in the north of the area.
Today, Kings Cross most famous export is children's favourite Harry Potter. Harry's train to Hogwarts left from platform nine and three quarters.

OUTeverywhere member organiser
This event has been added to the OUTeverywhere calendar by Richard A from Wanstead in the London area.
If you're young and beautiful, old and interesting, or just fun, please stop by and say hello. I'm 46, in a relationship, and mainly looking for new friends. Initially a little shy, I'm a kind, good-humoured, self-mocking sort with mainly cultural interests. Please note that endless Internet chit-chat really isn't my "thing" - I'm looking to meet people in the real world.
