The Line Modern Art Walk (Stratford to North Greenwich) 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 Emirates Air Line cable car across the Thames. It is displaying a changing range of sculptures, all by prominent artists, while including some large artworks already in place. There are currently about a dozen of them, but additional funds to finance more works have been difficult to come by.
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 and take the cable car across the Thames.
The route then finishes with 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.
