This area of the docklands was once the centre of London's flour milling industry, and both the Co-operative Welfare Society and Rank Hovis used to have similar mills to this one in the locality

Gateshead Millennium Bridge - the world's first and only tilting bridge!
Designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects and engineered by Gifford, the bridge takes its place at the end of a line of distinguished bridges across the River Tyne, including the Tyne Bridge and Robert Stephenson's High Level Bridge.
Linking Gateshead with Newcastle via Gateshead Quays (described as one of the best places in Europe by Tony Blair) and Newcastle's Quayside, the bridge not only serves a functional purpose as the River Tyne's only foot and cycle bridge, but its grace and engineering attract people from all over the world.

This beautiful tapestry was inspired by Melvin Magnall MBE to strengthen the link between residents of Woodbury, New Jersey, USA & Bury, England. Prior to his epic journey in 2000, retracing the steps of Tottington Quaker, Henry Wood in 1682.
The current (and derelict) Millenium Mills building dates back to 1934, built for Spillers Ltd, replacing the original mill constructed in 1905 for William Vernon & Sons millers (the mill was named after a blend of flour that won the 1899 'The Miller Challenge Cup'). The mill, and two neighbours, were sited on the dock to allow grain imported from oversea to be ground into flour as soon as possible. The mills were badly damaged in the Second World War, reopening in 1953 and continuing until the 1980s, the end brought about following the closure of the Royal Victoria Dock.
The Victoria Dock opened in 1855 (the 'Royal' was granted in 1880). This was the first dock designed to accommodate steam ships, the first with rail links to the national rail network and the first to use hydraulic machinery.
By 1860, the shipping was estimated to total 850,000 tonnes, larger than any of the other London ports. Although badly damaged throughout the Second World War, the Royal Victoria Docks were restored and returned to its former strength. The decline came in the 1960s with containerisation and larger ships shifting traffic to Tilbury. The docks closed in 1980.

This image is part of a set that I took while attending DrupalCon London.
The conference was excellent but pretty intense. I decided to take a stroll along the Embankment to unwind and also try some night photography with my new Nikon DSLR and 35mm lens.
I ended up spending about 4 hours trying out various compositions/locations. Luckily I managed to get the last train back to Croydon at 2.30am. So much for relaxing!
The results were definitely worth it.
