Through the 'Urethra of London' ( Walthamstow / Leytonstone / Leyton )

Nick Papadimitriou and John Rogers explore the valley of the Philly Brook -- the buried and forgotten stream that runs beneath the streets of the London zone that begat Alfred Hitchcock, London's short-lived 'Left Bank' and the great Panjandrum - Leytonstone.
This is an area sitting on the north-eastern frontier, within a triangulation of green spaces -- Leyton Marshes, Wanstead Flats and Epping Forest. This is also a place that by the mid-1990s had the largest population of artists of anywhere in Britain.
There is reading by Heidi Lapaine with music by Europa 51.
