The Story of St Katharine's tells the fascinating story of 23 acres of land by the River Thames with a trading history that began in the 10th century. Queen Matilda inaugurated the ancient hospital of St Katharine in the 11th century and so, under royal patronage the precinct grew. Chris West lives close to St Katharine Docks and with the inspiration of the neighbouring Tower of London and Wapping his book describes both the rich history of St Katharine's and the wonderful marina, buildings and amenities that make up St Katharine Docks today.
