Where can I buy a copy of Jude Rosen’s poems? I used to have one slim volume that included a poem entitled Strudel, but I can’t find it. I’d like to replace it and buy this new volume too.

Interesting and enjoyable poems. I particularly liked the one about the Black Path. Quite a few years ago now, I saw a sign near the River Lee marked “Black Path”, and wondered what it meant.

During the lockdown period I started researching and writing free London history walks, and posting them on a web site that I set up. You can follow the walks on your phone or print them out on paper. One of my favourite walks to research, write and do was the route of the Black Path. It starts in Walthamstow, and ends at Smithfield. You can see and use all of the free to use walks at walkspast.com

The power of places and their names is a wonderful form of ‘magic’ . It resonants deep with the psyche. Thanks for sharing.

Precisely my own sentiments on that tower of twisted iron they tried to sell to us, along with the rest of it . Also serves as a bizarre memorial to the East end community so ignominiously displaced to make way for it.
