East London

London’s Royal Docks were built in the mid-19th century – a marvel of Victorian engineering. An average of thirteen metres deep and 4 kilometres long, they cover an area the size of Central London. They closed to commercial vessels in 1981. Now this unique area is coming back to life in spectacular fashion and London’s Royal Docks are well on the way to being a vibrant and exciting waterside destination.
