St Pancras Cruising Club

The Club based at the basin of the same name, next to Camley Street Natural Park, between St Pancras Station and St Pancras Old Church, one of the oldest church buildings in London,[1] hence the name of the district.

The Victorian Gothic brick structure, designed by the office of Sir George Gilbert Scott around 1870, was moved a few hundred metres as it was in the way of the St Pancras International station enlargement.

The club organises a number of open days during the summer when visitors can visit the water tower.

SPCC has gained a reputation as one of the country's foremost cruising clubs, based not least on the year-round safe navigations that it conducts and marshals on the Tideway, the tidal Thames.

It is a founder member of the Association of Waterways Cruising Clubs, The club helps organise events such as the Angel Canal Festival and the Inland Waterways Association Canalway Cavalcade at which the boat handling competition novice winner's trophy is named after a former commodore of SPCC, Dr Roger Squires.
