"The Prospect of Whitby claims to be the oldest surviving riverside tavern with a lineage back to the early sixteenth century, despite the building itself burning down in a nineteenth century fire. A refreshing spot for people visiting pirates hanging at Execution Dock, famous artists such as Whistler and Turner painted views from the tavern."

Wapping is a place in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets which forms part of the Docklands to the east of the City of London. It is situated between the north bank of the River Thames and the ancient thoroughfare simply called The Highway. Wapping's proximity to the river has given it a strong maritime character, which it retains through its riverside public houses and steps, such as the Prospect of Whitby and Wapping Stairs. Many of the original buildings were demolished during the construction of the London Docks and Wapping was further seriously damaged during the Blitz. As the London Docklands declined after the Second World War, the area became run down, with the great warehouses left empty. The area's fortunes were transformed during the 1980s by the London Docklands Development Corporation when the warehouses started to be converted into luxury flats.
