Thamesmere
Looking across Thamesmere Lake towards the Thamesmere Leisure Centre. Rather prosaically the Environment Agency pumping station on the lake refers to the location as "Lake 4".

Thamesmead Town Centre Clock
The Thamesmead Town Centre Clock is here seen across one of the landscaped canals which were former drainage ditches on Plumstead and Erith Marshes.
The 18th century clock faces and cupola were donated to the Greater London Council who built Thamesmead. They came from the former Great Storehouse of the Deptford Royal Dockyard, which was demolished in 1981. The GLC paid for them to be restored and later funded the construction of a supporting 100 feet high clock tower in the classical style, which was completed in 1987.

History on the Clock Tower
On a wall of the clock tower in the centre of Thamesmead is a small photo panel with a short history of the area's military past.

Cannon and Clock Tower
Both of these reflect this area's military past. The clock and cupola came from the naval dockyard at Deptford, and the cannon is a reminder that where Thamesmead is now was once the site of the Royal Arsenal munitions factory.
