Evie Helen Erith Added: 13 Jun 2024 00:03 GMT	Vickers Road The road ’Vickers Road’ is numbered rather differently to other roads in the area as it was originally built as housing for the "Vickers" arms factory in the late 1800’s and early 1900s.

The new name was given as it had access to the River Thames (and because there were no other Watergate Streets). Many large houses were built in the street during the 17th and 18th centuries and lived in by those connected to the maritime trade. By the twentieth century the street had became run down and post-war, new housing was built. TUM image id: 1570963350 Licence:

London’s docklands, 1870s On the 1870s Ordnance Survey, both the Isle of Dogs and Surrey Docks were in place and thriving. I do love a rural vestige and both on the Isle of Dogs (west of the Millwall Docks) and in Deptford (under the jumble of railway tracks), the last of the market gardens are holding out.
