Great place where in the Heritage centre excellent lodes of local history and it's free worth a look.

Lovely place to explore by the riverside. Recently even more information signs and plaques have been put up. Some nice art and heritage.

Nice walking routes coz parking not encouraged in this area. U can see some fantastic naval and arsenal buildings among all the new development. More signs to follow other walking routes for bank side river Thames. Now it’s more easy to travel there after opening Elizabeth line for fast & easy journey.

An aggregate of historic warehouses and buildings that served for centuries as an important armament and ordinance compound.
Interspersed, some repurposed/regenerated and all subsumed into a modern ‘residential precinct’ albeit with mixed results.
This well-maintained precinct lacks congruity, looks piecemeal, feels enervated and detached.
REVISITED 5 YEARS LATER
A lacklustre development regardless of the recurring cannon motif with all the museum fabric now long gone and fizzled out like a dud round…PTOOFF!!

Love this area. Awesome walking along the river, great cafes, pubs and restaurants. Even a micro brewery nearby! Bi-weekly farmers market.

Amazing Anthony Gormley sculptures at the heart of this historic and beautiful Thames landmark. The regeneration of this area is tasteful and respectful of the neighbourhood’s history whilst bring it into the 21st century. The site is well connected with DLR and train links, including the soon to open Crossrail.
