Greenland Dock
Greenland Dock is the oldest of London's riverside docks, located in Rotherhithe in the area of the city now known as Docklands. Greenland Dock used to be part of the more extensive Surrey Docks, most of which have by now been filled in. Greenland Dock is now used purely for recreational purposes, it is one of only two working enclosed docks on the south bank of the River Thames.
