Recogn ising its history

Re bu ildin g its future

Barges once unloaded their grain at the mill that stood here in Bromley-by-Bow, an area that was part of a vibrant, cosmopolitan, East End. More recent times have seen the area’s fortunes decline then soar again: first with the rise of Canary Wharf, then with the legacy of the Olympic Games 2012 which have forever changed the skyline, opportunities and outlook for East London. It is here on Gillender Street that you will find Lock Keepers, a collection of stylish, light-filled new homes. There is a choice of studio, 1 and 2 bedroom apartments featuring energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly technology such as solar panels. The landscaped outside space and nearby transport connections mean that a brand new community will grow at Lock Keepers, in homes beautifully designed for life in 21st century London.

Archit ect ure a nd st y l e i n tun e wi th i ts urban fa b r i c Taking its design cue from the building that once stood here, the architecture of Lock Keepers reflects a simple industrial aesthetic, with clean lines, pleasing proportions and handsome brickwork. The skyline highlights that this is one of the world’s most dynamic global cities, and here the newest towering skyscrapers meet ribbons of 18th and 19th century waterways winding their way across the landscape. Lock Keepers overlooks the historic Bow Locks, part of a wider waterscape that includes Limehouse Cut and Bow Creek. Here towpaths offer a new perspective from which to view a truly remarkable industrial heritage, from railway viaduct to Victorian factory and Limehouse Basin to canal boats at their moorings.

his t ory i n i ts ma k i ng Bromley-by-Bow has evolved a distinctive character and identity of its own. It is a place where the many different cultures and origins of its people are reflected: people who lived and worked against a backdrop of the warehouses and factories, mills and music halls that were once here. Bromley-by-Bow is Changing Bromley-by-Bow is being transformed. It’s in the process of becoming a new town centre with new shops and community facilities, schools, a hotel and supermarket to support its growing population. An investment in this exciting area is an investment in an area that’s looking forward to a spectacular future.


Sun Flour Mill Old maps show the Lock Keepers site already developed in the mid 1800’s, and for over two centuries it would grind grains into flour to make the bread that fed the capital.

On Gillender Street is one of London’s oldest brick-built houses dating from 1485, with features from a Tudor arched oak doorframe to the Georgian frontage lovingly restored in an award-winning restoration.

Three Mills A cluster of mills powered by the tides of the river Lea which formerly processed corn and gin. House Mill was built by one of the many Huguenots who migrated from France into East London in the 18th century.

T h e v i e w f ro m a bov e A s t u n n i n g u rb a n landscape The landscape around Lock Keepers continues to evolve. The Docklands are still expanding today, while futuristic new venues from the Aquatic Centre and Velodrome to the Copper Box Arena in Stratford are bringing exciting stadiums and arenas for everyone to enjoy. London is also rapidly becoming a ‘vertical city’ with tall buildings rising fast, bringing new landmark architecture to sit alongside the familiar. Meanwhile many traditional areas of the East End are experiencing revitalisation and regeneration.
