I did a walk from Woolwich, across the Thames on the ferry and explored North Woolwich and Silvertown

This first video shows King Henry's docks, Woolwich Ferry and the Princess Alice maritime disaster
Part 2
This shows the Royal Victoria Gardens, a little story about William Holland and the Tate and Lyle factory
Part three

The Sugar girls, the Tate Institute,
Brick Lane music Hall and the Barrier park with the Green dock topiary waves
Part four

Topiary waves, Anchor and Hope pub, the Silvertown memorial to the 1917 explosion
Part 5

Millennium Mills

I was going to do more, but this walk took 3 hours and it was so cold that I couldn't go on any more.

I hope you enjoyed it. Just a little snippet of so much history in London.
