Misleading cycle lane
For anyone walking or cycling the Thames Path westwards from Woolwich this is a misleading marking: they should have turned left at this point onto a permanent diversion, though it is not signed as such. The path comes to an abrupt end 60 metres further on: Image The two cyclists visible in this picture had just made that mistake.

River wall at Harlinger Street
The upper level here is the Thames flood defences, equivalent to the top of the Thames barrier gates; the lower level is the original river wall. The photo taken roughly at mid-tide.

The Thames at Sunset
As well as the afterglow of the sunset, the moon was peeping through the clouds.

Thames Path: dead end
For anyone walking or cycling the Thames Path westwards from Woolwich for the first time there is a surprise: it comes to a dead end, within sight of the Thames Barrier 600m upstream, but with a not-very-well signed diversion of 1.6km to get there. Attempts by local campaigners and Sustrans to get the "missing link" completed have so far failed.

Cable Depot, Warspite Road
This brick shed on the north-west corner of the former Woolwich Dockyard has an interesting history. It was designed by Edward George Rivers and built by Kirk and Randall in 1882–3 to store underwater cables for the General Post Office. It was in use for this purpose until the 1970s, then converted to light-industrial units, and retains the name Cable Depot.

North end of Warspite Road
At one time this road - originally named Trinity Road - would have led directly onto the slipway called Trinity Wharf, but now terminates in the high concrete wall of the Thames flood defences, crossed by a flight of steps.

Steps to Trinity Wharf
Looking down from the top of the flood wall seen in Image, into the narrow inlet named on some maps as Trinity Wharf. The lower steps date from the time of rebuilding of the river wall in the 1830s, when the road now known as Warspite Road was called Trinity Street. The upper flight is modern, with the addition of a flood wall downstream of the Thames barrier in the 1980s. Seen at roughly mid-tide.
