About Hays Galleria
HAY'S GALLERIA - THE RIVERSIDE EXPERIENCE
Hay’s Galleria is a conversion of one of London’s most famous wharfs dating back to the 1900s. Near to London Bridge, the HMS Belfast and the Design Museum, the Galleria is an ideal setting to take in London whatever the weather, thanks to the covered atrium. What to do and see...
THE HISTORY
Built in the 1850's, Hay's Wharf took deliveries from ships from all over the world and the area became known as the 'Larder of London'. The great Hay's Wharf complex has been restored to its former glory and those who visit the Galleria today stand on the same spot where the tea clippers from India and China edged their way into the dock 150 years ago. More on the history...
THE NAVIGATORS
A focal point in the heart of the Galleria is David Kemp's magnificent 60ft kinetic sculpture, The Navigators, which provides a hypnotic combination of moving parts, water jets and fountains.
A GAME OF PETANQUE?
A Pétanque (French boules) pitch sits in front of The Navigators looking out towards the River Thames.
