A London Region walk guided by Mary Enright.

Widely considered the most beautiful public park in London, Regent's Park is also the private home for many residents and not just the animals in the zoo. It was originally intended to be a gated community of large villa homes for wealthy aristocrats, dotted around a magnificent palace for George IV. A proper rus in urbe for the privileged. It didn't quite work out like that - the palace never materialised - but it still makes for an impressive home for a few. On this walk we hear the history of this 200 year old public space while enjoying the lovely summer landscape.
