Have you ever been to a farm in the middle of the city? Complete with sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks and maybe even llamas? Now's your chance! It's a wonderful little place with a good cafe on site too.

Really unique and historic venue with a diverse programme of weird and wonderful shows. A portal back in time to old East London when music halls were relatively common - this is now one of the last remaining few. Really cool bar inside too.

Neighbourhoods
A quiet but charming area - wharves and warehouses now converted into flats, with a few great old-fashioned riverside pubs. The Thames path cuts through Wapping so you can walk along the rover for most of it.
