The Line Modern Art Walk (Stratford to North Greenwich) Short Walk

This walk makes use of the The Line – London’s first dedicated modern and contemporary art walk, which is fully waymarked and split into three parts, linked by a short DLR ride and the IFS Cloud cable car across the Thames. It is displaying a changing range of sculptures, mostly by prominent artists, while including some large artworks already in place. There are currently twenty-four of them, although some of those were pre-existing artworks, in situ before The Line was launched.
The route starts in the Olympic Park and initially follows the Bow Back Rivers downstream, passing Three Mills Green & Water Mill (the largest tidal mill in the world) and Film and Television Studios (London's largest) and then follows the River Lea to Cody Dock, a community project on a former Gasworks site. After a short ride on the DLR you reach Royal Victoria Dock with four artworks on display and take the cable car across the Thames.
The route then finishes with five further artworks along a stretch along the Thames Path rounding the O2-Dome, before turning to North Greenwich Underground Station and the neighbouring wide range of eateries and waterholes on the plaza and inside the Dome itself.
