Talk:Royal Victoria Dock

Distances from London Bridge and Gravesend
The first sentence of History states "The Royal Victoria Docks are 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) from London Bridge, and 36 kilometres (22 mi) from Gravesend". This is presumably meant to be the distance by River, as the Royal Victoria Dock is definitely not that straight line distance from either of these two points (more like 7 km and 25 km respectively); however, the distances given do not appear to correspond to a reasonable measure by River either - both are overstated. Does anyone have the book cited, to confirm? --DavidCane (talk) 21:02, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
