The Wapping Project

The two rows of Georgian houses that sit either side of the now filled in old entrance to the Wapping Basin, which continued into the London (Western) Dock. The centre map is from a 1920 coloured street atlas of London and shows some the old docks that have been filled in and built on.

The Wapping Hydraulic Power Station (built 1890) was originally run by the London Hydraulic Power Company in Wapping, London, England. Originally it operated using steam and later it was converted to use electricity. It was used to power machinery, including lifts (elevators), across London. The Tower Subway was used to transfer the power, and steam, to districts south of the river.

After its closure as a pumping station in 1977, the building was converted and reopened as an arts centre (the Wapping Project) and restaurant (Wapping Food). Exhibitions are held in the basement and the main ground floor hall houses the restaurant. Some of the original equipment is still in place. The building was designated a grade II* listed building in December 1977.

Brunel's tunnel under the Thames was designed for foot and carriage traffic. Opened in 1843 and soon converted to rail use. Small shops and booths occupied the alcoves. More information at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames_Tunnel

Large numbers of flint nodules can be seen on the Wapping foreshore, along with rounded pieces of chalk that the flints probably came with. Chalk was a material used to pack into the timber frames to construct barge beds many years ago.
