Recordist's notes
On this walk, along Kennet wharf Lane, to the river one is enclosed by the industrial building on either side and immersed in sound from a succession of air conditioning outlets. When reaching the river bank loudspeakers can be heard. It is a guide on a passing tourist boat talking about the historic sights in view.
