These pubs have been a major part of the social life of the communities of North Woolwich and Silvertown, Royal Docks, E16, giving respite, drink and entertainment for locals, dock visitors and Ferry Festival Pram Racers (1970s-1980s).

Photos provided by National Brewery Heritage Trust and Elena Juzulenaite. Co-produced with Elena Juzulenaite, Emma Crace and Sophie Millar as part of the Tate Lives Civic Engagement Project with UEL, Craftory and Royal Docks Community Voice. With great gratitude to all on Silvertown and North Woolwich Past and Present for helping to make sense of fragmented spaces.
