It would cause confusion for an address in Leadenhal Street EC3 to give
also the associated name for EC3 which is Fenchurch Street. *Is the E16
area still known as Victoria Docks, which is its associated name?


According to mail I receive from certain parties, yes I live in Victoria
Docks!


What's the water like?
