"St Katharine's by the Tower--full name Royal Hospital and Collegiate Church of St. Katharine by the Tower--was a medieval church and hospital next to the Tower of London. The establishment was founded in 1148 and the buildings demolished in 1825 to build St Katharine Docks, which takes its name from it. However it was reestablished elsewhere in London and 123 years later returned once more to the East End."--Wikipedia (viewed Mar. 29, 2012) Cartographic material. |
