EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken by Aerofilms Ltd in 1968, offers a breathtaking view of The Royal Docks in Silvertown, Newham, London. The image transports us back in time, revealing the bustling maritime activity that once defined this historic waterfront. The Royal Docks, an engineering marvel of the late 19th century, were originally designed to accommodate the largest ships in the world. In this photograph, we can see the intricate network of docks, quays, and wharves, crisscrossing the water's surface like a labyrinth. The large, open expanses of water reflect the sunlight, creating a shimmering mirror-like effect. Silvertown, a former industrial hub, is named after the silver-coloured mud that was once deposited along the banks of the River Thames. The area's rich maritime history is evident in this photograph, with numerous cargo ships and vessels anchored at the docks, waiting to be loaded or unloaded. The cranes and other industrial structures that dominate the landscape are a testament to the area's past as a major centre for trade and commerce. Despite the passage of time, The Royal Docks continue to play an essential role in London's economy, serving as a vital gateway to the city for international trade. This photograph serves as a reminder of the area's rich history and its enduring significance to the city of London and the United Kingdom as a whole.
