After more than a decade of planning, the London Walking Forum and the London Boroughs launched the Capital Ring on the 21st September 2005.  This 78-mile circular walk around London divides itself into 15 sections of between 3.5 and 7 miles in length.  The Ring’s radius is between 4 and 10 miles of its notional centre, Charing Cross, the point used nationwide to calculate the distance to London.  The Capital Ring leads its walkers to suburban parks, canals and rivers, roads and railway tracks, woods and commons and everything in between.  This leperello book captures the Ring as I found it during 2014 and 2015.
