The fluted column Grade II listed water house in leafy Lloyd Park was the childhood home of William Morris. It celebrates his life’s work in a permanent collection, notably his textile design, including his hand-cut, wood-block printed wallpapers that reference the British countryside. Morris’ ethos about design for all has had a far-reaching influence, ranging from the Bauhaus movement to Marie Kondo: “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful” he once famously said. Visit on a Saturday and you’ll also coincide with the Lloyd Park Market.

Yes, it’s become the Instagram generation’s catnip, but it’s hard to resist taking a photograph of the irreverent pieces that cover the walls, floors and ceilings of this neon nirvana – from seedy Soho sex shops to old motel vacancy signs. It was the studio of the late Chris Bracey, a neon sign artist whose work can be seen in films such as Blade Runner and Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut. Some pieces are available to rent or buy. Afterwards, head next door to Mother’s Ruin Gin Palace for a negroni, made using gin distilled onsite.

Walthamstow Village is a perfect location for brunch, with restaurants such as Eat 17 (Walthamstow's post code is E17). Eat 17 is a relaxed bar and British restaurant that uses locally-sourced ingredients and bread from its own bakery. After eating, it’s well worth exploring this quaint and cute part of Walthamstow. If you have time, pass by the Vestry House Museum, which focuses on the Victorian era heritage of the local area. Lovely Tudor houses can also be spotted close by.

269 High StThe award winning Homies On Donkeys is a tiny counter-only taqueria in Walthamstow’s Wood Street Market. Chef Smokey - the owner and taco king - is a man who claims to never go on holiday because he loves working so much. And once you watch him do his thing and have eaten his food, you won’t doubt it for a second. These are big, messy, and juicy tacos. The camaron enchilado has king prawns so chunky that the corn tortilla can barely take their weight along with the tingly tomato and chilli sauce they’re cooked in. The cochinito (pork butt cooked low and slow) is the star though. It’s smoky in flavour cooked by someone Smokey in name. Make sure you check out the Saturday specials as well.
