	Limehouse Basin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The history of the connection of the Basin to the River Thames and the Limehouse Cut is complex, but in 1968, a short stretch of new canal was constructed to reconnect the Limehouse Cut to the Basin, replacing the Cut's old direct link with the Thames.
		The property boom and bust of the 1980s set back progress considerably, as did the construction of the Limehouse Link tunnel which was built under the north side of the basin in the early 1990s.

		The first is that there was no direct link between the dock and Limehouse Cut, which leads to the River Lee, instead Limehouse Cut went directly into the Thames through Limehouse Lock.
		Although it was an extremely short trip on the tideway Jason was not allowed to carry passengers for this part of the trip so we all got off and watched the boats go into the ship lock, which was 350 feet long and 60 feet wide.
		Timber yards and moored lighters loaded with lengths of wood seemed to dominate this part of the trip although as it was a Sunday we saw no commercial traffic on the move.

	Limehouse Cut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Authorised by an Act of Parliament in 1766 (making it the oldest canal in London), it provides a short-cut from the River Thames at Limehouse Basin north-east to the River Lee Navigation, avoiding the tortuous curves of the lower reaches of the River Lee or Lea at Bow Creek.

		My first stop on the DLR is Limehouse, an area that, according the Nikolaus Pevsner and Elizabeth Williamson, “gained its name from the lime kilns around Limekiln Dock, established by the 14th century when the chalk was brought from Kent to serve the London building industry” (142).
		I must admit it is a nice touch; I see this neighborhood as particularly emphasizing the mental connection between water and cleanliness (there isn’t even a scuff on the building’s white concrete walls), tranquility and wealth, and the clear-flowing waterfall seems to encourage that impression.
		Throughout the next century, modern phenomena, such as the arrival of the railway in 1851, the introduction of hydraulic machinery in 1854, and an increased desire to compete with larger docks, such as Royal Victoria Dock, led to alterations in the dock’s layout.

		The original entrance to the Limehouse Cut was from the River Thames with no direct connection from Limehouse Basin, but this was changed when the new entrance was constructed in 1967-8.
		Entering the Limehouse Cut it is apparent that this was a purely commercial waterway that makes little allowance for the cruising visitor.
		That is not to say that it isn’t of interest, and as it is short this doesn’t present any problems, but after the Regents Canal or The Lee it does come as a bit of a shock.

		On urban canals (such as most of the Regent\rquote s Canal east of Camden Town, the Limehouse Cut and parts of the Paddington Branch), in their working days they were lined with warehouses, wharfs and other waterway-related industrial buildings.
		While we appreciate that the needs of London today aren \rquote t the same as they were in the 1820s, we feel that much can be done to preserve the \'93feel\'94 of how these waterways were.
		But some sections (most of the Regent\rquote s Canal east of Camden Town, the Limehouse Cut and some lengths of the Paddington Branch) did have this urban character.
