The Victorian Abbey Mill pumping station on the London trunk sewerage system The original pumping station, designed by engineer Joseph Bazalgette, Edmund Cooper, and architect Charles Driver, was built between 1865 and 1868, housing eight beam engines by Rothwell & Co. of Bolton. Two engines on each arm of a cruciform plan, with an elaborate Byzantine style, described as The Cathedral of Sewage.

Torpedo boats at the Thames Ironworks, Blackwall (1906) The Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company was a shipyard and iron works straddling the mouth of Bow Creek beside its confluence with the River Thames. The main activity was shipbuilding but the company notably produced ironwork for Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s Royal Albert Bridge over the Tamar in the 1850s, and the world’s first all-iron warship, HMS Warrior, launched in 1860. Employees at the Ironworks formed a works football team, called the Thames Ironworks Football Club. This club was later renamed West Ham United, whose emblem of the crossed hammers represents the large riveting hammers used in the shipbuilding trade. West Ham are also known as "The Hammers" for this reason. TUM image id: 1709817073 Licence:	The renowned Two Puddings pub on the Broadway Stratford (1966) Early in the twentieth century, the Two Puddings had became a notorious pub, known locally as ’The Butcher’s Shop’ on account of the amount of blood spilt. Some people would turn up at the pub for a Saturday night punch up rather than for a good time and a pint. From 1962 until its closure in 2000, Eddie Johnson was landlord of the Two Puddings and he started to drastically change its reputation. Eddie and wife Shirley were rock ’n’ roll fans and the Two Puddings - a.k.a. The Puddings or simply The Pud - became a prime venue with the UK’s first disco upstairs, later more of a nightclub. Coming along to the pub in the 1960s and beyond were television personalities, actors, writers, champion boxers, musicians, gangsters and footballers. Harry Redknapp met his wife Sandra there in 1963 and David Essex made his performing debut at the Puddings. At the end of the 1990s, changes in the law required breweries to sell off pubs, including the Two Puddings. There was a court case that saw Eddie Johnson thrown out as landlord. Because of his four decades in charge, Eddie Johnson was then London’s longest serving licensee. In 2012 he wrote a book about his experiences called ’Tales from the Two Puddings’. It was later made into a documentary.
