This was originally Regent's Canal Dock - the point where the Regent's Canal entered the Thames. Regent's Canal Dock closed to shipping in 1969, and by 2001 it had been transformed into Limehouse Basin. The tower in the distance in the middle of the photograph belongs to St Anne's Church, Limehouse.
