The South Quay warehouse is between the road Wapping, and Wapping Dock on the other side. The 1855 date on the wall seems fairly precise although the 1851 O.S. map shows that there were buildings of some sort there at that earlier date. The old warehouse has now been converted into luxury apartments whilst retaining some of the old machinery.
