A walk led by Simon Fowler, Vice-Chair of the Richmond Local History Society and author of Richmond at War, a revised and extended edition of which has just been published, recreating the walk taken by many servicemen during the War when they rushed up Richmond Hill from the Town to get to their barracks in the Park before the gates shut promptly at midnight, and hearing stories of heroism and tragedy by local people between 1940 and 1945.

This walk starts from the Little Green opposite The Richmond Theatre at 7.00 pm and finishes with an adjournment to a local pub around 9.00 pm.
