Much of the old neglected dockland area in the East End, has been converted to houses and commercial buildings. But every now and then, you find a gem. Such is St. Katharine's Dock, near the Tower of London. It is fully in use as a marina-type dock, with the addition of the old warehouses refurbished as shops and apartments, and the old Dickens Inn being fully restored as a pub and restaurant.
Back in the 1980s, it was the temporary home of the Historic Ships collection. These pictures date from then.
