Surrey side

Its almost a month since I last had to work in London and I've never had a chance to walk through Wapping and Shadwell before. Huge cluod burst just as I reached the 'beach' below the Prospect of Whitby which claims to be London's oldest riverside pub and is the location of the gallows from which pirates were once hung. Now it affords a more architectural view south across the river towards Canary Wharf.
