Charles Dickens, Captain Kidd, Judge Jeffreys and Nicholas Hawksmoor, to name just a few, have all have left their mark on London's East End.

With leaflets detailing walks in Wapping and Limehouse, Spitalfields, Whitechapel and the Isle of Dogs, all published by the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, you can follow the trail of the famous and infamous in this fascinating corner of East London.

Each leaflet traces routes through historic parts of the borough, taking in a myriad of buildings and landmarks of interest on the way.

Other walks include routes focusing on Jewish and Bengali cultural highlights, canal-side walks, and a 'movie map', which visits several locations near Canary Wharf where blockbuster movies have been filmed.

The Black History Walks are the most recent addition to the walks collection - they lead visitors to places and events with significance for black and Asian history in the borough.

The walks range from 1.5 to 2.5 hours and are designed to start and finish close to a tube or DLR station.

The leaflets are available free of charge from local libraries, other council buildings and London Tourist Information offices. You can also download them from the pages here.
