Millwall Dock was opened in 1868. The dock was used mainly for timber and grain, a trade which eventually moved down river to Tilbury. It is now dominated by offices and luxury flats. In this view, the structure on the right is a floating Chinese restaurant and the towers beyond cluster around Canary Wharf which is just hidden by the buildings in front of it.
