This view is from the recently built Pontoon Dock DLR Station, overlooking the Graving Dock. Millennium  Mill is one of the few surving warehouses in the Royal Docks. Originally built by W. Vernon & Sons in 1905, it was destroyed in 1917 by the Silvertown Explosion but was rebuilt. Vernon & Sons was later taken over by Spillers Ltd.  In the background you can catch a glimpse of ExCel, the large exhibition centre at Custom House on the north side of the Victoria Dock.
