What to do there

AdventureBorough Market Wine WanderBorough Market has been trading for over 1,000 years. In 1860, the railway company wanted the land. The market's 1755 Act of Parliament said no. So the railway got a 'flying leasehold' — they own the airspace only as long as a train runs through it. Every rumble overhead is that deal still in force. Neal's Yard Dairy ages cheeses in Victorian railway arches in Bermondsey — the policy is 'taste before you buy.' Bedales wine bar occupies a former potato storehouse. The room was the Greek restaurant in Bridget Jones — the fight scene crashes through that window.
