Victorian Asylum on the Hill Leytonstone to Claybury via Wanstead

This walk follows partly the traces of a journey I undertook in March 2007 inspired by a line from Ian Bourn's Leytonstone set film Lenny's Documentary. From the Green Man Roundabout and the Leyton Stone I pass through Wanstead (Woden's Stede) to look at the Victorian Orphanage for the children of Merchant Seaman. Then I cross the River Roding to Claybury Hospital - a late Victorian Asylum now converted to a private estate called Repton Park. • You can watch Ian Bourn's film Lenny's Documentary here at the Carroll Fletcher website until 8th July http://carrollfletcheronscreen.com/20... • • You can read the original blog post from 2007 here http://thelostbyway.com/2007/03/out-t... • Please subscribe for regular videos: http://bit.ly/1EJjIB8 • My book: This Other London http://amzn.to/25u6aKn • My blog: http://thelostbyway.com/ • Follow me on Twitter: / fugueur • Music: • Dream Yourself Smooth by Puddle of Infinity • Passing Time by Kevin MacLeod • ~-~~-~~~-~~-~ • Please watch: Walk from St.Paul's through Islington to Highgate • • Walk from St.Paul's through Islington... • ~-~~-~~~-~~-~
