The walk is c2.5 miles before lunch taking in St Peter’s Eaton Square (which should be open for a short visit) then plenty of ‘blue plaque spotting’ along Chester Square then heading via St Leonard’s Terrace to Flood Street and the Cooper’s Arms.  After lunch we head down to the Embankment continue passed the Royal Hospital Chelsea and Chelsea Bridge returning to Victoria station via St George’s Drive. We should be back at Victoria station by 4 pm. It’s a flat walk all on pavements and being London there are plenty of drop out points but in terms of underground stations Sloane Square is close to the Cooper’s Arms.
