It would seem from its appearance that this pond on Botany Marshes was rather polluted before it dried out. To its left is a path, which turns south in front of the industrial buildings on the right to eventually reach Northfleet. The two blue cranes immediately beyond the former pond are on the other side of the Thames at Tilbury Docks.
