Full steam at King’s Cross-St Pancras

Meeting Point: Near the main entrance of King’s Cross Station, in front of the Plum + Spilt Milk Restaurant (part of the Great Northern Hotel).

Come and explore the newly-regenerated neighbourhood of King’s Cross St Pancras and discover its industrial heritage. Tickets are available here: https://www.learnartory.com/kings-cross-st-pancras/

Come and feel the full power of the Industrial Revolution at King’s Cross – St Pancras: steam, coal, canals, trains and omnibuses! And as the Victorians did everything on a grand and glorious scale, there will be some sumptuous brickwork too. Sadly, we will not board a train for Hogwarts or Edinburgh, but we will definitely travel through time and discover that this now trendy part of London was, not so long ago, rather unsavoury.

From no-go zone to hip neighbourhood, come and see urban regeneration at work with LearnArtory!
