| Max's walk
on Thursday 12th July 2012 - all welcome!
Put the date in your diary now
The Silver Jubilee Walkway,
as it was known then, was originally laid down in 1977 as the main feature
of the work of the Environmental Committee, set up by the London Celebrations
for The Queen's Silver Jubilee, under the Chairmanship of Max Nicholson.
Her Majesty The Queen opened it by unveiling a plaque on the South Bank
Lion, on the night of the Thames fireworks celebrations on 9 June 1977. |
