Description
Royal wharf buildings in a residential and commercial development in Newham, London located near the Thames Barrier, and close to both West Silvertown and Pontoon. Royal Wharf sits on the site of the Silvertown explosion, a large explosion at a munitions factory on 19 January 1917 which killed 73 people and injured more than 400, and caused substantial damage to the local area. As part of the development, the Silvertown War Memorial was relocated to Royal Wharf Gardens, in the centre of the development.
