Deptford waterfront

Last Sunday I also tripped down to the riverside in Deptford - not an easy task given it seems to be largely monopolised by industrial units and ugly new apartments. I did stumble upon a very quiet square with an ancient cobbled alley (called Watergate) down to some river steps. It was hightide, so not much opportunity for exploring the foreshore. This weekend would have been better (but didn't make it) as there were low spring tides in the morning.

This is a photo of the old warehouse adjacent to the alley. Note the lilac window frames - not the sort of thing one traditionally finds on old industrial buildings!
