This sixty minute virtual tour explores the buildings of London Borough of Newham
The Southern part of the London Borough of Newham is dominated by the vast Royal Group of Docks and the industries that built up around them. These have been partially redeveloped - with some striking new buildings like the University of East London's Halls of Residence, and the Crystal - the new home for the Greater London Assembly, while some of the heritage of the old docks remain at the Gallions Hotel and Spillers Millenium Mill
Newham has more to offer than Docklands though and you'll find a 12th century church, a memorial to Tudor Martyrs, a fine theatre and plenty of civic pride. The borough has some marvellous former industrial buildings along the River Lea
Newham is also home to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the buildings that put London on the World Stage as part of London 2012
Whatever your taste in buildings, you are bound to find something you like on this virtual tour
