Wikipedia has a page about Salmon's Lane Wharf
Salmon is the common name for several species of ray-finned fish in the family Salmonidae. Other fish in the same family include trout, char, grayling, and whitefish. Salmon are native to tributaries of the North Atlantic (genus Salmo) and Pacific Ocean (genus Oncorhynchus). Many species of salmon have been introduced into non-native environments such as the Great Lakes of North America and Patagonia in South America. Salmon are intensively farmed in many parts of the world.
Typically, salmon are anadromous: they hatch in fresh water, migrate to the ocean, then return to fresh water to reproduce. However, populations of several species are restricted to fresh water throughout their lives. Folklore has it that the fish return to the exact spot where they hatched to spawn. Tracking studies have shown this to be mostly true. A portion of a returning salmon run may stray and spawn in different freshwater systems; the percent of straying depends on the species of salmon. Homing behavior has been shown to depend on olfactory memory. Salmon date back to the Neogene.

![Regent's Canal: Parnham Street Footbridge. The footbridge was commissioned in 2003 to replace an older crossing. An ancient footpath crosses the canal here, leading from Limehouse to St Dunstan’s Church. It passed through a field belonging to a nineteenth century land owner, a Mr Parnham. Today the footbridge joins Parnham Street with Carr Street and Repton Street. [[787906]] can be seen under the footbridge. by Nigel Cox – 01 May 2008](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/78/79/787984_c1fd8370_120x120.jpg)
