Beckton Alps, 1973 The north end of the great spoil heaps of Beckton Gas works, looking east from the A13 Newham Way. Part later became an artificial ski slope, but the nickname pre-dates this.
Beckton Alps Junction The flyover carries the busy A13 from South Essex into London. The traffic on the right is queuing to get onto the A117 towards Manor Park and East Ham. Immediately ahead there is a sports club with houses behind.
