I will be outlining the story of this small area adjacent to The Tower Of London, now in the shadow of Tower Bridge, from the ancient 12th century, Royal Hospital and Church, through its destruction and removal of more than four thousand people to make way for the world famous Telford Docks- it's gradual decline and closure, then the marvellous renovation in the 1970's, creating the new Yacht Haven, eventually becoming the magnificent Marina we know and cherish today.
