The following photos are taken from Gavin's Borough Tops walk a 20.7 mile walk mainly following the Green Chain Walk and bagging the tops of Lewisham/Southwark, Lambeth, Bexley and Greenwich. There is something strangely enjoyable in bagging a top even though some are slightly underwhelming and no one knows where they are - although we did let everyone know that we could (at least I did).
