Tourist Guide

London, Uk, 17th of May, 2020: Sunlight on the river Lee in Hackney.
Lovely park by the River Lea or Lee, with wonderful views across the Walthamstow Marshes. Photo taken March 2008. (View of cafe.) Owner: London Borough of Hackney (website).
Springfield Mansion, Springfield Park This used to be a private house, until it, and the land around it, was compulsorarily purchased in 1904 to form a park. It is where the Rangers have their office.
The Lea Bridge In fact, there are 2 bridges, one a footbridge (nearest) and also the road bridge. The green signs nearby refer to a London wide network of footpaths; the Capital Ring and the Lea Valley Walk. "I don't know what the large pipes in the foreground are for."
Bridge over the Lea A footbridge over the River Lea at the northern end of North Mill Fields (on the west bank). It appears to have an unusually large span/depth ratio for a flat (non-arched) bridge.

The check in at hotel is nothing short of a disaster, despite registering details online in advance. Queued for over half an hour to get key. I understand at peak times it can be busy but for only 3 members of staff to be on seems ridiculous. Rooms are dated but clean and functional, good location ...
