With great transport links with buses, the tube and roads, Barking is easy to access and has a variety of amazing things to witness. Enjoying a rich fishing history and heritage, a fish market can be enjoyed in the town, where you can collect fresh and high-quality fish for your home. This heritage is represented in The Catch, a modern sculpture that depicts the fishing history combined with the Saxon heritage of Barking.
Of course, Barking is a hive for artwork with many sculptures, including the ancient-looking folly, which was actually constructed in 2007! Barking is also the final resting place of Elizabeth Fry, a familiar face from the £5 note. History-phobic individuals need not worry as the retail centre of Barking has a variety of high-street and independent shops where you are sure to find something you need. |
