Mudchute
Mudchute Park and Farm is a large urban park and farm just south of Canary Wharf on the Isle of Dogs in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is a Local Nature Reserve and a Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=iGiGL data portal (map) )〕 The name of the site is a testament to the engineering overspill when Millwall Dock was being constructed in the 1860s. Spoil from the excavation of the Dock, and silt from its channels and waterways were dumped on nearby land, using a conveyor system.
