Crane Park Island Nature Reserve is located in the Twickenham area and offers a peaceful haven for wildlife amid London’s suburbia. The island is man-made and is 4.5 acres in size. It is connected to the “mainland” by a short crossing through a gate and a walkway overlooking the river. The site was formerly the location of the Hounslow Gunpowder Mills. The mills used the River Crane as a source of water power.
