West India Quay History
We are located in the Grade I listed "Port East Warehouse" of Docklands West India Quay built by the West India Dock Company between 1800 - 1803. Designed by the surveyor George Gwilt, the buildings were fron the West Indies.

Klein's part of the range was compleated in 1803 as a two storey building designed to hose offices for both Dock Company and Customer Officials. The building was raised in 1827 and was later used for storing tea brought in by tea clippers.

Much of the interior of the building was destroyed by fire in 1901, but fortunatly it servived the blitz of 1940 when seven of nine original warehouse was destroyrd. The ghostly out line of warehouse No3 can still be seen on the eastern end of the building.
