Social EventsSummer Party at The Royal Foundation of St Katharine in LimehouseMonday 4th June - This is a members only evening event.
On Monday 4th June we are delighted to be holding our summer party at The Royal Foundation of St Katharine's in Limehouse (a short walk from Limehouse DLR) by kind invitation of The Master, Mark Aitken, who is a member of FOSKD, Hopefully the sun will shine and we can look forward to a glass or two of Pimms & canapes in their beautiful hidden garden! During the evening we will have a tour of this fascinating site (including a brand new wing) and whilst we are visiting their chapel, Mark has kindly agreed to give us a talk entitled "E1 to E14" about the fascinating history of this "Royal Peculiar" which was originally founded in St Katharine Docks in 1147 consisting of a medieval chapel and hospital which were demolished in 1825 to make way for the building of the Docks.
