TQ3878 : Millwall Park
taken 2 years ago, near to Isle of Dogs, Tower Hamlets, England

Millwall Park offers facilities, including football pitches, cricket, bowls, play areas (toddlers, juniors and older children), a play centre for under 5s and changing rooms.
There are paths for strolling, seats, trees, meadows and planting for biodiversity and scenic value. The park represents the heritage of the former docks and shipping industries with the now disused railway viaduct and the former ropewalk, all within view of Canary Wharf.
This former docklands site complements the formal, riverside Island Gardens. It provides for sports and play as well as space to get away from the crowds and to see the sky. The site is linked to the Mudchute Urban Park and Farm. With Island Gardens, the three parks offer a variety of scenic interest and considerable wildlife value
A few years ago I read a book by Mark Mason "Walking the lines" in which he walked the route of the London Underground lines, overground. I will repeat this visiting all 272 stations (some more than once). My route tries to follow the line of the railway as closely as possible, using footpaths and roads, deviations are made to make the walk more "interesting".
