A CRUISE TO LONDON’S ROYAL DOCKS in 1966
Aboard one of a pair of London’s tourist trip boats we travel from Tower Pier down-river to enter and explore the Royal group of docks.
Back in the 1960s the River Thames and its docks were busy with cargo ships and barges. Since then the container revolution and road traffic congestion have lead to London’s docks becoming disused.
The docks seem rather quiet as this was filmed at the weekend
The ground between King George the Fifth and Royal Albert Docks has since become London City Airport, and the ExCel Exhibition Centre occupies much of the north side of Royal Victoria Dock.
