River Thames: Cross Ness lighthouse
Owned and operated by the Port of London Authority this lighthouse was at one time in an isolated location at the northern end of Plumstead Marshes. However the residential area of Thamesmead has now been built up to the river bank here, and a housing estate is behind the photographer. On the far side of the river are the tanks and the wind turbine in Dagenham Dock.

Cross Ness light
Dating from 1895, the 41 ft tower of Cross Ness Light shows a flashing white light which is visible for eight miles. The promontory on which the light stands gives its name to Crossness Sewage Treatment Works, just downriver of here. This is next to the Thames Path. Dagenham can be seen across the other side of the River Thames.
