About

Creekmouth sits where the River Roding meets Barking Creek, a tidal inlet with exposed mudflats and saltmarsh at low tide. The neighbourhood includes a post‑war housing estate and an industrial strip that backs onto the creek, with Creekmouth Open Space providing a strip of green alongside the water. Boatyards and small industrial units line parts of the creek, and the flood defences and quay walls are a visible part of the shoreline. Paths along the creek give direct views of the channel and its birdlife, and the Roding’s course is a clear organising feature of the area.

Barking Riverside occupies former riverside industrial land along the Thames and is built around a new riverside promenade and clustered residential streets. New transport links now reach the development, and the riverside walkway connects housing areas to the foreshore. Local amenities include community centres, schools and parks inserted among the housing plots, and the layout preserves long sightlines down to the river. The combination of creekside mudflats and a continuous Thames frontage defines how public spaces and streets are arranged in this part of Barking and Dagenham.
