caption_attribution_description: English: Three Mills Green and Wild Kingdom are open spaces on Three Mills Island near Bromley by Bow adjacent to the development at Sugar House Lane
context_page_description: The Three Mills are former working mills and an island of the same name on the River Lea. It is one of London’s oldest extant industrial centres. The mills lie in the London Borough of Newham; and, despite lying on the Newham side of the Lea, access is principally from the western, London Borough of Tower Hamlets, side of the river.
  The River Lea Tidal Mill Trust Ltd owns the House Mill and the Miller's House buildings, which are used for educational projects and as conference spaces. The Lower Lea Project is also based at Three Mills in The Miller's House.
context_section_description: Three Mills Island is in Bromley-by-Bow in east London. It forms part of the 50-mile Lea Valley Walk celebrated in The Telegraph, The Guardian and The Newham Recorder.
  The Prescott Channel, a former flood relief channel passes to the east, making the land an island. The mills share Three Mills Island with the 3 Mills Studios, a 10-acre film and TV studio, which makes a large number of major films and television programmes and an open green and play area called Three Mills Green.
  The 26-acre area of land opposite the mills, shown in historical surveys as the Three Mills District, once housed a large cooperage producing barrels to support the mills, as well as a wide range of industries, from the manufacture of innovative inks to sugar refining. Called Sugar House Island, the development is being delivered by Vastint and will bring 2,500 jobs to the area, with a new business district as well as waterside homes and amenity.
