Wernham Hogg: Silverwater

This next suburb isn't going to be in anyone's top ten, but every suburb means every suburb. 

Silverwater

From my previous suburb of Ermington, Silverwater is across Parramatta River. Thankfully, Silverwater Bridge can cart you to the other side,

and with an okay view to boot. 

This is the appropriately named Silverwater Road, and it isn't really the kind of road you take for an afternoon stroll, with its many lanes of traffic and industrial surrounds. 

Regardless, that's what I was doing today. 

I continued on down this unappealing stretch,

seeing not much of interest,

apart from a Krispy Kreme oil tanker.

I eventually reached this intersection, marking the point at which I would finally get the chance to leave Silverwater Road and hopefully walk somewhere more pleasant.

The main point of interest here is Slough Business Park. The fact that out of all the places in the world, they named this place after Slough should really tell you everything you need to know. 

Turning left at Slough, I headed deeper into this industrial suburb. 

Taking this road marked with palm trees, 

and even more dedication to the cause. 

I also passed the Jurassic Park control centre, 

apparently owned by Joe Biden. 

The roads around here are entirely as interesting as you'd expect somewhere named after Slough to be. 

How do I stretch "and I looked at more industry" into an entire post? 

I didn't mind this bit of Slough's hedges,

but that's about the only interesting thing I ran into on these streets. 

It actually turns out that the entire street is named after Slough. Rivetting. 

Continuing along,

I passed more of the same,

with various levels of industrial-ness,

and this nifty wall. 

Eventually, with very little extra to say, the suburb ended and I entered my next.

Silverwater: The kind of place that you'd have a regional office of a paper company.
