Row of shops on West Ferry Road
The shops (including West Quay post office) form the ground floor of one of the blocks of the London City Council's 1936 Westferry Estate, built to replace slums that had been flooded when the Thames overflowed its banks.

Riverside apartments on the Isle of Dogs
This is taken looking south-east down the Greenwich Reach of The Thames, which is bending back to the left round the tip of the Isle of Dogs (which is the land inside a big bend in the river, not an island).

Isle of Dogs.
Approaching Mudchute Station on the D.L.R. That's an interesting name for a place, too. Isle of Dogs, I understand, came from the habit of earlier Royalty keeping their doge, especially hunting ones, in the area.
