King Henry Stairs


A set of former stairs on the Thames foreshore, north bank, off Wapping High Street, London.

These stairs were formely named Execution Dock Stairs (Rocque’s map, 1746) so were probably the location of infamous executions in this area.

All that remains here now are a few timbers and a modern ladder down to the foreshore.
