Royal Albert Dock to North Woolwich waterfront

Описание: Subscribe for more low-edit, no-nonsense walks across London

This walk, starting at Royal Albert Dock in Newham, roughly traces the fifteenth section of the Capital Ring walking route. Unfortunately the maps available through TfL are a little out of date - the very fast pace of development along the waterfront means that I mostly had to find my own way and that I couldn't just follow the Thames around to Woolwich Foot Tunnel.

But! There's some really interesting stuff here. We pass Newham Council's offices, travel back through Beckton District Park to Cyprus and then cross the University of East London Docklands Campus. Later, we pass Gallion's Reach before fumbling through the aforementioned developments, all the way to the Galleons Point Riverside Wildlife Area and Royal Victoria Gardens on the Thames

Note: The video is a little blurry around the edges as my lens broke and I didn't notice until the filming was done and dusted. I'm told it's not very noticeable, but it bothered me an enormous amount when editing, so if you're like me and it annoys you, I'm sorry!
