Bromley-by-Bow: Violet Road sewer ventilation shaft
This solitary brick-built structure, that looks like a former factory chimney, is on the east side of Violet Road, and is in fact a sewer ventilation shaft, probably dating back to late Victorian times. It serves the same function as the familiar but smaller vertical iron pipe type vents that are used on ordinary residential sewers, but must be connected to one of London's main outfall sewers to justify its size.

Docklands Light Railway bridge over Limehouse Cut
Looking northeast. The DLR train crossing is composed of the latest type of stock, introduced in 2008. This part of the DLR follows the course of a former line opened by the North London Railway in 1850 and connecting with the London & Blackwall by a west-facing junction at Stepney, and later an east-facing junction at Limehouse.

Limehouse Cut (2)
The Limehouse Cut was built to provide a navigable short-cut from the River Thames at Limehouse Basin north-east to the River Lee Navigation at Bromley-by-Bow, thus avoiding the long meandering curves of the lower reaches of the River Lee at Bow Creek, and the long bend in the River Thames around the Isle of Dogs. It was authorised by the River Lee Act of 1766, and completed in 1770 so it is effectively the oldest canal in London. This view was taken from under the Morris Road bridge looking in the direction of Bromley-by-Bow.
The blue bridge in the distance carries the Docklands Light Railway over the cut.
The towpath on the right forms a section of the Lea Valley Walk. It is also shown on the Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 scale maps as a series of solid light brown circles, indicating an off road cycle route.
