EDITORS COMMENTS
This plan view of St. Katharine Docks in London, dated 1838, showcases the intricate layout of this historic waterfront area located on the north bank of the River Thames in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. Established as one of the main docking facilities serving the bustling city, St. Katharine Docks played a significant role in London's maritime history. The western and eastern basins, clearly visible in the map, were designed to accommodate a variety of vessels, from small boats to large ships. The entrance to the docks is situated at the top of the plan, with the quays extending outwards, creating a sheltered harbor that protected ships from the often unpredictable Thames. The meticulously planned layout of the docks included a system of locks and a tidal basin, which allowed for the efficient movement of goods between vessels and the surrounding warehouses. The quays were lined with a diverse range of businesses, from merchants and shipbuilders to taverns and chandlers, creating a vibrant and bustling waterfront community. St. Katharine Docks also boasted impressive architectural features, such as the ornate Doric columns of the West India Dock Warehouse and the distinctive red-brick buildings that line the quays. These structures not only served practical purposes but also added to the visual appeal of the docks, making them a popular destination for both locals and visitors. Today, St. Katharine Docks remains an important part of London's rich maritime history, offering a glimpse into the past while also serving as a modern leisure and residential destination. This plan view provides a fascinating insight into the dock's historic layout and the role it played in the city's development.
