About

Chelsea Riverside East sits on the north bank of the Thames, focused around Cheyne Walk and Lots Road. The river path runs beside a mix of terraced houses, moorings and occasional houseboats, with streets that step down toward the water. Small shops, waterside pubs and local services line the approach roads, while regular river traffic and the Thames Path shape daily movement. Blue plaques on Cheyne Walk note past residents and the street’s long association with artists and writers.

The river frontage is marked by industrial and residential contrast: the red-brick Lots Road Power Station near the water remains a visible landmark, its tall chimneys and brickwork fronting the Thames. Albert Bridge sits at the eastern edge, providing a pedestrian and vehicle link across the river. Development has kept some of the original street pattern and riverside uses, so the area combines working river infrastructure with residential streets and the continuous public route along the riverbank.
