Surprisingly the Chiswick end used to be quite industrial with the Fullers
Brewery being about the last.
The West Middlesex Waterworks complete with its five chimneys abutted right
up the eastern end of Hammersmith Terrace. Traces can be seen in the arched
wall to the side of the alley which is now mostly used by bikes. The entrance
to the Old Ship used to be on a continuation of this alley as there was no river
frontage at that time. Then farther on towards Hammersmith, past Kelmscott
House and the Doves and over the high bridge over the Creek ,
So others can place it ,it may be worth mentioning the Creek was where
Stamford Brook met the Thames.
You can still see an outfall but the last open vestiges of the Brook and
Hammersmith Creek were covered over
In the 40’s.
For most the the only reminder it ever it existed is in the name of the
Station between Turnham Green and Ravenscourt Park on the District line
One of London’s lost rivers.
