Walking in London: London walk in Kingston upon Thames town centre
This London walk takes place in Kingston-upon-Thames in Surrey – a 30-minute train ride from Waterloo Station. This 17-minute walk takes you from Kingston Bridge into Kingston town centre via the ancient market square, Clattern Bridge, Rose Theatre and Kingston Town Hall. I then turn down through the main shopping area to end at Kingston’s Red Telephone Boxes architectural installation. The train station to London Waterloo is just around the corner from there. Part 1 of this walk takes you along Kingston Riverside.

The two combined walks – Kingston Riverside (Part 1) and Kingston Town Centre (Part 2) - work very well in reverse, starting at the telephone boxes and ending at Ravens Ait where a pub or two is around the corner for refreshment before the return walk. Or you could continue to Surbiton (around 20 minutes) and get a train to Waterloo from there (I can provide route information or a new walking video on this). From Surbiton you can also take a train to Hampton Court (King Henry VIII) and either walk back along the tow path to Kingston (a good 30-45 minutes, especially if you are tired by then!) or take the train again. In summer, boats also run along this stretch to Kingston and Richmond.
My equipment:
Gimbal - DJI Osmo 2 Mobile, what a joy this has been to learn and balance;/
LG mobile phone - a bit on its last legs and overheating at all the hard work, but just about hanging in there.
I do the immersive first-person walks with these two items.
For vlogging to camera, I use my Canon G7X Mark ii. One day I hope to buy a proper camera gimbal so as to use the Canon for the actual filming, but this will take a bit of saving up for, and then a bit of learning!

Kingston Rag 1981 and 1982 procession through Kingston upon Thames
One of my very first videos captures (in not very good quality) Drivers and Vehicles from National Rescue taking part in the Kingston Rag week procession through Kingston Town centre as it was in the eighties. The second half (1982) is a bit better quality. If you enjoy my work please Subscribe and of course feel free to pass on to others who may enjoy it.
The Barge Walk from Hampton Court to Kingston upon Thames
The Barge Walk along river Thames starts at Hampton Court Palace, ends at Kingston Bridge and has a length of three and half a mile approximately. You can close the circuit back through Bushy Park and do six miles this way. As I live in the Alpine region, I usually walk on steeper paths, but I was absolutely surprised, that this flat walk was never boring. An absolute highlight was the dragon boat training of the Kingston Royals ladies (35 seconds, starting at 02:53), very impressive!
For further details of the Barge Walk look at .

Boat trip to Hampton Court Palace from Kingston upon Thames, Surrey, England
This trip, from Turks Pier, by Kingston Bridge, at the back of John Lewis department store, takes about 35 minutes. The boat is the New Southern Belle, owned by Turks Launches. According to them, it's a Mississippi-style stern wheeler and brings a flavour of old New Orleans to the River Thames - although it was designed and built in Sunbury on Thames.
Hampton Court Palace was built in 1515 by Cardinal Wolesey and presented to King Henry VIII in 1529. This Tudor palace houses a large collection of orginal arms, armour, tapestries and fine paintings. It is famous for its gardens, maze and the Great Vine, planted in 1769.
Medieval Kings were crowned at Kingston and, more recently, it was voted 'Top Town' in the Guinness Guide to the best places to live in the UK.
The Thames winds and twists as it gets nearer to Hampton. There are swans, geese, ducks, coots and many rarer water birds, such as the fishing herons which can sometimes be seen among the willows and bushes along the natural embankments.
Video taken with a Nokia 6700 mobile phone. Amazing what you can do with a mobile these days...
