Ward map of Royal Docks within the London Borough of Newham
Not to be confused with Royal Dock, Grimsby.
Royal Docks is an area and a ward in the London Borough of Newham in the London Docklands in East London, England.
The area is named after three docks – the Royal Albert Dock, the Royal Victoria Dock and the King George V Dock. They are more correctly called the Royal Group of Docks to distinguish them from the Royal Navy Dockyard, Royal being due to their naming after members of the royal family rather than Crown ownership. The three docks collectively formed the largest enclosed docks in the world, with a water area of nearly 250 acres (1.0 km2) and an overall estate of 1,100 acres (4.5 km2).[citation needed] The area was designated a special enterprise zone in 2012. North Woolwich is part of Royal Docks ward.
Royal Docks is also a ward of the London Borough of Newham. At the 2011 Census it had a population of 10,679.[1]
