The pier now serves various river operators offering public cruise services to and from Central London. It is located near the Cutty Sark and within easy walking distance of several other popular attractions. Following refurbishments in 2004 and March 2018, the pier continues to facilitate river transport services for both locals and tourists.

The Underground Map project is creating street histories for the areas of London and surrounding counties lying within the M25.

The aim of the project is to find the location every street in London, whether past or present, and tell its story. This project aims to be a service to historians, genealogists and those with an interest in urban design.

The website features a series of maps from the 1750s until the 1950s. You can see how London grows over the decades.
