Teddington Lock - probably Edwardian period The left of this view looks very different now as the gravel pits were filled after the war with rubble from the Blitz. There are still plants and trees that have grown from the soil that was taken along with the rubble. Old London postcard TUM image id: 1635959403 Licence:	Eel Pie Island, River Thames (c.1910) It was once a bubbling cauldron of British rock ’n’ roll. There was a five-month period in 1963 where you could see the Rolling Stones play there every Wednesday. The Who, Pink Floyd and Screaming Lord Sutch all did gigs at the Eel Pie Island Hotel, a rickety nineteenth-century ballroom that was lost to a fire in 1971.

A road runs around flat-roofed blocks in either a three-storey H-plan configuration with a central entrance stairwell or a two-storey terraced configuration, enclosing shared courtyards. The courts are named after English-language poets. The quality of the design means it holds up as a fine example of preserved modernist architecture. TUM image id: 1574440143 Licence:
