Cross-rail

[Robin54]

I went to see the archeological remains put on display as a result of the Cross Rail digging today and fine it was too. HOWEVER, upstairs is a blinding exhibition of the history of the London docks.....highly recommended if you are in London....and there was a Spoons next door so it was fish and chips and a few Ghost Ships, then off to the Maritime Museum at Greenwich, and a few more beers. Incidentally, all free except the beer and chips!:lol:

Museum of London (Docklands) I think the nearest stop is Canary Wharf on the DLR and the 5 mins walk:thumb:

A lovely part of London to visit (Maritime Museum) and when there the Maritime brewery tap is on site for grub and ale, Cutty Sark is worth a visit also - but it's not free.
Cheers

I think you can get a day pass to go in the cutty sark, observatory and whatever 'pay for' exhibition is on at the Maritime Museum, all in one

. . . then off to the Maritime Museum at Greenwich,

Hi!
Also, well worth a walk up the hill to see John Harrison's clocks at the Royal Observatory.

Great indoor food market in Greenwich too.
