Suggestions for Canal Lock near Mile End East, London

Paul F. • July 22, 2010Perfect for cycling to victoria park and London fields, avoid sunny Saturday afternoons as it gets super busy

Glenn L. • January 29, 2012There's a guy in the flats who likes to pose in his pants on his balcony. He's quite fit if you like that sort of thing!

Eimear D. • November 14, 2011Great place to go for a walk or run! Ps watch out for all the cyclists

The Guardian • February 15, 2012On the right are Hackney Wick warehouses where Percy Dalton's once made peanuts and now artists like Bridget Riley make art in studios but also on the street. If it's stationary, it's a canvas.

Papa S. • April 17, 2010A pleasant place to idle away a summers day. Be careful of locals though, they often push cyclists in canal as part of class war

Daniel • November 11, 2015Sit down. Try to relax. Watch the people passing by. Relax more.

Toby S. • July 13, 2011Great place to sit on a bench, read and relax.

Bert P. • April 23, 2013Socialising in the kitchen while lost in journals! Good stuff!

Nate F. • 1 week agowatch for swans nesting

Jason Q. • August 14, 2017Really lovely to walk around and be by the water. Cute cafes and atmosphere. Can be a little scary to walk around at night - it's not well lit up with street lights.

Jordi L. • June 24, 2015Take a walk or stop for a beer in front of the canal. The sunny days it's a busy place.
