    Longer than 2 miles presumably? 
    Depends how you are measuring.

    Its still known as "the beer mile" but its about 2 miles these days (depending on where you consider it ends/starts) if you take a straight line along the railway line... many of them are in the railway arches under the railway line. When you walk it then its more complex because some are on the north side, some the south side but there are only certain points you can cross under the line. Likewise some buildings etc are butted up against the line so you have to walk around etc.

    There are a small number of large gaps and they are the ones that are brown/yellow trouser time depending on how confident you know the way and where the nearest loo is... remembering you've already been to 5-6 bars by the time you hit the first big gap etc.
