	Victorian London - Thames - Docks - Royal Victoria Dock
		In the centre of the North Quay and fronting the open space are the dock offices, the greater part of the remaining space on this side being occupied by a couple of vast ranges of tobacco warehouses and by an immense extent of coal sidings.
		The length of the old dock with its appurtenances is a mile, that of the new two miles, but this ample elbow-room in the way of length has led to the latter being constructed upon another and, as is considered, a much more economical system than the old.
		These two docks are pierced in the western end of the Southern Quay, and between the coal-tips and the mast shears; the latter of which, capable of dealing with the heaviest spars, have a private siding of their own communicating with the general railway system.
