Alphabetical thing: Beckton Park

Beckton Park DLR station is on the branch to Beckton. It has two platforms, linked by a footbridge, with an exit on the eastbound platform. The station is an unusual circular shape, as a result of being built under a traffic roundabout.


What's immediately outside the station? Beckton District Park.



So it is near the park, then? Well, it's near one end of the park anyway. This is a very, very long, park, and the northern end is some distance away. The Capital Ring walk goes the whole length of the park on its way to Gallions Reach and North Woolwich.
