Reed Bed, Crane Park Island
Shown as open water on the map, the middle of Crane Park Island is now more of a marsh. It was probably an old millpond at one time.
Some of the reeds have been cut, maybe as habitat enhancement? The island is a nature reserve.

The Shot Tower at Crane Park Island
Now a visitor centre for the London Wildlife Trust, the tower was built in 1826 and was used to make hard shot, for ammunition in the making of weapons.

Old mill race, Hounslow Powder Mills site
Viewed from upstream, from a position that was probably under water when the mill pond was in operational condition. This is by interpretative station 3, according to a nearby post, but a corresponding on-line description does not seem to exist.

Crane Park at the powder mills site
This is the mill race downstream of where one of the lower powder mills was. The Hounslow Powder Mills had a complex layout of mills and associated waterways. Not all of the waterways are still present, but this one seems to have been associated with a mill at the camera position, and also with a mill which discharged through a channel just behind the large trees. This second channel has been filled in.
