NOTES: Part of the Port of London and built in 1825-1828 by the St Katharine Dock Company, this was the smallest group of London's enclosed docks. Thomas Telford engineered the docks while Philip Hardwick designed the quayside warehouses. St Katharine Dock House, designed by A. Renton & Associates and completed in 1965, was the headquarters and divisional offices for the Port of London Authority's police force and later became the World Trade Centre.
